This streamline art deco building just outside of Hobart city known as the Taroona Hotel was designed by Harry Hope in 1949. The building stood in a state of disrepair for many years with a high security fence around the perimeter at one stage. The building was due to be demolished but has thankfully been incorporated into the new development.
Tasmania has a wonderful diversity of Art Deco & Modernist design. Art Deco and Modernism Architecture Tasmania is the largest photographic archive in Tasmania dedicated to celebrating 20th Century Modernism throughout Tasmania.
