Gerflor flooring harmonises interiors in contemporary refurbishment of heritage school building

All Hallows'​ School in Brisbane sought out Gerflor to provide the flooring for their McAuley Hall building refurbishment.

McAuley Hall was built in the late 1950s and has had many lives. The refurbishment completed in 2023 created 12 contemporary general learning areas, new staff working and lunch spaces, as well as new student and staff amenities. While primarily used to accommodate the growing year 5 and 6 cohort, the spaces have been designed to be flexible so that other year levels can use the spaces as needs change.

Magda Myszkowski, an interior designer at Deicke Richards, worked with the school and its stakeholders to develop consistent and contemporary interior design finishes inspired by the history of the school and the building. Magda selected Gerflor’s Premium Compact range to harmonise the interiors of this heritage building and the result is a beautiful and contemporary style with inviting spaces for learning, socialising and relaxing.
