Holyman House

You can't really do a photo blog about Launceston without including Holyman House. It's a fairly prominent art-deco building, and it's just so photogenic.

To me, it looks like the corner of an unfinished streetscape. Off to the left of shot, you can see the adjoining buildings don't quite fit in look or size - so Holyman House looks to me a little like a lonely cruise ship.

  2. Wonderful Art Deco building, and it was originally designed to house the shipping and airline company - Holyman & Sons.
