The fireplaces were amazing, including the hearths.
This staircase blew me away.
The side view and very impressive.
This is the floor in the entrance - some quilt ideas here for sure.
The entrance.
The whole front.
The side.
The floor in the main hallway - this is timber!
This side view shows the sheer scale of this building.
There were heaps of people enjoying the Sunday sunshine at the cafe.
This is definitely a place that I will revisit in the future - if you ever get the chance I recommend you take a look for yourself.

You didn't tell about being told of taking photos!
Yes Leeann is correct. I was walking around and was spotted with my camera in my hands and was approached about taking photos of the art on display. I was very embarrassed and explained that I wasn't taking photos of the art, but of the building and the tile designs in the hearths in particular. Being a quilter of course these would attract my attention. I offered to show the woman the photos on my camera, at which point she said no that it was okay and that I could continue on, although I think that I was watched very closely.
Unbeknown to me, fellow quilter friends that were there at the same time as me, were approached as well which we found amusing when we were talking about it later.

Whoops - I don't know what happened there, must have hit the publish button twice. Sorry!
