Engaged by Dunn & Hillam Architects, JHA provided multidisciplinary building services for this award-winning restoration project that completely revived the rundown heritage building into a culturally significant museum that explores the history of the mining town of Cobar.
The museum seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor spaces with the exhibition starting outside along the new accessible entry ramp, through the building’s nine ground-floor rooms, and out into the landscaped outdoor space. Sitting atop on the first floor is flexible space mainly used for archived material.
