Housed within the heritage-listed Wentworth House (1920s), Veriu Central balances historic charm with modern hospitality. MOSTAGHIM worked within the constraints of the existing layout for the hotel rooms but transformed the foyer into an inviting urban living room for both guests and passers-by.

​

As part of the lobby works, steel-framed windows were reinstated into the façade to strengthen its connection to the public realm, while a modern pressed metal awning was introduced over the entry. In the rooms, multi-function furniture maximizes space efficiency, while velvet, timber paneling, and brass evoke the warmth and elegance of the original interiors, layered with contemporary elements.
