Gospel Hall Art Deco + Gothic design - Launceston


The Gospel Hall building in Launceston is a wonderfully proportioned Art Deco building with Gothic revival elements.  The building actually reminds me of the design of Duncan House, one of Launceston's earliest Art Deco buildings, check it out here

    It is fascinating how flexible architects can be.

    Re Duncan House, you said it was a commercial Art Deco building that has an interesting mix of Art Deco and Gothic Styles, including the main hallway and staircase. With Gospel Hall, which parts focused on the gothic?
