Mitchell House, Commercial building in Melbourne, Australia
Mitchell House stands at 352-362 Lonsdale Street, featuring six floors of reinforced concrete structure with steel-framed windows and horizontal design elements.
The building, completed in 1937 by architect Harry Norris for Thomas Mitchell & Co brushware manufacturers, initially contained their showroom on the second floor.
The structure represents the Streamline Moderne architectural style of the 1930s, with its green faience tiling and barrel-vaulted ceiling in the entrance foyer.
Located at the intersection of Elizabeth and Lonsdale Streets, the building maintains its original ground floor elements including copper-framed shop windows.
The Australian Survey Corps took over the building in 1940, converting it from its initial commercial purpose to serve cartographic functions.
