Campbell & George is a vibrant transformation of a historic bowls club into a modern, family-friendly venue. Originally founded in 1934, the Queanbeyan Bowling Club, now Campbell & George, has deep-rooted community significance. The renovation aimed to blend the club's rich history with contemporary comforts. This design journey preserved key elements of the original structure, from parquetry flooring to concrete elements, successfully marrying the old and new. Campbell & George honors the club's legacy by thoughtfully incorporating vintage features, such as repurposed bowls lockers, into its design. The result is a lively space that welcomes patrons to enjoy sports viewing, alfresco dining, and family-oriented entertainment while paying homage to its storied past.
At the heart of this revitalized space, a JC Bordelet Eva 992 suspended gas fireplace provides warmth and a contemporary focal point. This stylish addition not only enhances the ambiance but also showcases the design's commitment to blending modern elements with the club's heritage. The revival of Campbell & George as a dining and entertainment hub showcases the club's dedication to meeting evolving community needs. Retaining two lawn bowling areas ensures that cherished traditions endure, attracting both longtime members and new visitors. The project's eco-conscious approach not only respects the environment but also effectively manages the client's budget. Campbell & George stands as a modern interpretation of a classic bowling club, where the past harmoniously coexists with contemporary design elements, offering a welcoming space for all to enjoy.
Campbell & George boasts an industrial-chic aesthetic that exudes character and charm. The infusion of industrial elements into the venue's design is a nod to its rich history while embracing modern trends.
Amidst this industrial backdrop, the JC Bordelet Eva 992 suspended gas fireplace takes center stage, adding a resounding "wow" factor. Its sleek lines and 360-degree flame view seamlessly blend with the venue's design ethos, offering both warmth and a captivating visual centerpiece. The fireplace not only provides comfort but also serves as a symbolic link between the club's storied past and its revitalized, contemporary identity. It's a testament to how thoughtful design choices can enhance the ambiance and create a unique atmosphere in a beloved community space.
Bold design choices were made at Campbell & George, a venue deeply rooted in social traditions. Given its status as a beloved social hub, the design prioritized creating a large, open space where people could gather comfortably. This decision not only pays homage to its legacy but also sets the stage for modern social interactions.
The inclusion of the JC Bordelet Eva 992 suspended fireplace further amplified the wow factor, seamlessly blending industrial elegance with functional warmth, making Campbell & George a destination where history meets contemporary comfort.
The thoughtful design choices at Campbell & George extend seamlessly into the atmosphere, creating a warm and inviting space that beckons patrons to linger.

It's a social haven where locals can come together for events, fostering a sense of community that has been at the heart of this establishment since its inception in 1934.

Yet, the interior is anything but austere, with carefully chosen timber accents and a burst of pop-inspired colours.
This daring contrast of industrial grit and warm, playful elements not only pays homage to the club's legacy but also adds an exciting and contemporary twist to the venue's ambiance. It's a space where the past and present harmonize, inviting guests to enjoy the best of both worlds.
