KIN Architects have completed two distinct but complementary apartment renovations in Brisbane’s iconic mid-century Torbreck building.

Torbreck Apartment RenovationsKIN Architects | 2018 &amp; 2024In Brisbane’s iconic mid-century Torbreck building, KIN Architects have completed two distinct renovations—each tailored to its owner while honouring the building’s character and views.The 2018 redesign, for a young couple, transformed the apartment into a warm, flexible space inspired by the mood of a wine bar, using salvaged materials and bespoke craftsmanship to enhance both sustainability and style.In 2024, a second apartment was reimagined for a Stradbroke Island resident. An ocean-toned palette, curved joinery, and reflective surfaces draw in light and open the space to the spectacular outlook.Together, these two apartments reveal KIN’s thoughtful, site-specific approach—where materiality, lifestyle, and heritage meet.Your 45-minute tour includes access to both apartments.The 2025 Houses Program is presented in partnership with the Australian Institute of Architects' QLD Chapter and its Members.Please note: tickets for the 2025 Houses Program are non-refundable.
