Outside becomes inside

Building: InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto
Architect: Rialto Building - William Pitt
Winfield Building - Richard Speight Jr
Restoration - The Buchan Group

The InterContinental Melbourne The Rialto, previously known as the Rialto Hotel, was built from a conversion of two heritage buildings, the Rialto and the Winfield, both designed and built in the 19th century. The supposedly outdoor area had turned into the hotel interior cafe. Two buildings had merged together and become one. Wonderfully well-designed! Impressive!
