An application has been submitted for a boutique three storey retail building for 26 Wandoo Street, Fortitude Valley by the Cazzolato Family which is known as ‘The Biscuit Factory’.
Designed by DC8 Studio, the intent of the proposal is to accommodate a broad suite of uses available to provide flexibility for future tenancy arrangements.
According to the development application, possible uses include an art gallery, restaurant, bar, cooking school or office & shop.
The proposal includes two separated rooftop terrace areas, with each including toilet facilities.
“The proposal will contribute to the neighbourhood amenity through the achievement of high quality architectural design. The building design adopts the use of significant variations and recesses in the building form, a mix of building materials and finishes and extensive design elements such as the arc windows.”. – DC8 Studio

The architecture is great, and a big improvement. The only drawback is they’ve left a vehicle loading dock at the front which will detract from the active frontage and footpath, it shouldn’t be allowed when there is rear lane access. Hopefully it can be converted to another shop in future.
