Techne Architecture's Prahran Hotel rebuilt the Windsor pub format around a sequence of 64 stacked concrete drainage pipes — the most photographed pub façade in Melbourne, with a kitchen that's held up.

Techne Architecture + Interior Design's 2014 intervention remade the 19th-century Prahran corner pub as a robust essay in board-formed concrete and raw steel, all industrial gravitas outside and warm banquette comfort within.
