装饰艺术风格的建筑——其风格的装饰元素和几何图形都非常的赏心悦目——受到许多人的喜爱。但经历了近一个世纪的使用和不成熟的翻新意味着这些宝石经常需要人手来恢复它们昔日的辉煌。

Art deco buildings – with their stylised decorative elements and geometry so pleasing to the eye – are beloved by many. But nearly a century of use and half-baked renovations means these gems are often in need of a hand to return to their former glory.

Woollahra酒店就是这样的一座建筑。在由室内设计和建筑公司Richards Stanisich的带领下进行翻新后，该酒店作为一个现代酒馆的身份回归，令人欣喜地忠实于其装饰艺术的本质。

One such building is The Woollahra Hotel. Following a refurbishment led by interior design and architecture practice Richards Stanisich, the establishment returns as a modern-day pub delightfully true to its art deco bones.

这座建筑最初建于20世纪30年代，由建筑师Cyril Ruwald设计，是该地区建筑历史的重要组成部分。Richards Stanisich尊重这一事实，保留了建筑的原始特征，并通过新建来补充现有的建筑。通过重新配置布局，引入三个新的酒吧，并通过新的钢架可操作玻璃和高光泽的茶色外墙砖改善酒吧与街道的关系，使Woollahra酒店散发出新的自信和吸引力。

Originally built in the 1930s and designed by architect Cyril Ruwald, the building is an important part of the area’s architectural history. Richards Stanisich has respected this fact, upholding the building’s original features and complementing the existing through the new. In reconfiguring the layout to introduce three new bars and improving the pub’s relationship to the street with new steel-framed operable glazing and high gloss teal facade tiles, The Woollahra Hotel exudes a newfound confidence and appeal.

在建筑内部，建筑师创造了一个细节丰富且又诱人的空间，通过材料和色调来引导经典的澳大利亚酒吧。赭色、棕色和粉红色的柔和色调与瓷砖墙面和抛光木材一起覆盖了整个空间，地板--一些空间使用水磨石，另一些空间使用地毯--具有艺术装饰图案。总的来说，它让人想起另一个时代的简单和浪漫。

Inside, the architects have created a richly detailed yet inviting space that channels the classic Australian pub through materiality and tone. A muted colour palette of ochre, brown and dusty pink coats the space alongside tiled walls and polished timber, and the floor – terrazzo in some spaces, carpet in others – features art deco motifs. Overall, it recalls the simplicity and romance of another time.

这里既有亲密，又开放；你可以在靠窗的高桌前轻松地喝上一杯，也可以和一群朋友在一个卡座里聚集几个小时。无论哪种选择都是可以的，就像去该场所的标志性餐厅Bistro Moncur一样，幸好这家餐厅就在隔壁。

There is both intimacy and openness here; you could breeze in for a quick drink at the high tables by the windows or gather with a group of friends for hours in a booth. Either option is on the cards, as is an outing to the venue’s iconic restaurant Bistro Moncur, which thankfully remains next door.

Woollahra酒店以熟悉和轻松的方式诠释了澳大利亚经典酒吧的精神。它的设计虽然不华丽，但做得很好，肯定会在这个酒馆的持续传承中发挥一定的作用。

The Woollahra Hotel truly encapsulates the spirit of the classic Australian pub with familiarity and ease. The design, which is unstuffy but beautifully done, is sure to play a part in this pub’s ongoing legacy.
