The building is a former flour mill factory built in 1906. Many original features have been retained in the fit-out, such as the pressed tin ceiling, polished floorboards, wooden staircase and steel beams. 

 

“We are extremely proud of the work we have done with the project team and the clients,” said Evan Reeves, Associate at Geyer.

 

“Venn is a significant contribution to the Perth cultural community.”
