The Stem
Part 1 of 2 | The first phase of the renovation of the Royal Snack Bar, Bowen Hills. Designed as a short stay accommodation for business men and women who work in the Bowen Hills area. The space provides an affordable place to stay for those working long hours and need a place to rest or relax before continuing work. The design is based on 'vertical farming' and plays homage to the once farming land in which the site is situated. The curtain walls act as a trellis for the edible fruit bearing plants that are accessible by all users.
