Venue Features
Design:
qualia’s distinctive design is the work of Australian architect Chris Beckingham. His philosophy was to create a luxurious Australian retreat that stimulates the senses and draws the outside in, resulting in a design which combines a unique sense of space, openness and harmony. Set amongst native Eucalypts, each pavilion has been handcrafted from the finest imported and local timber and stone. To accompany the natural surrounds, Freedman Rembel has furnished the interiors with fabrics and patterns inspired by nature.
