Colonial Mutual Chambers, Heritage office building in Queen Street, Brisbane, Australia.

The Colonial Mutual Chambers presents a three-story rendered brick facade with an oriel window supported by floral decorated corbelling at 62 Queen Street.

Built in 1883 for the Colonial Mutual Life Assurance Society, the building stands on a former penal settlement site purchased for £3,140 in 1881.

Architect Richard Gailey incorporated Gothic tracery elements and Tudor-arched windows, departing from his typical Classical architectural style for this commercial structure.

The building maintains office spaces on upper levels and retail establishments on the ground floor, with a mezzanine addition above the street level.

The facade features six different badges along the oriel window band and decorated turrets that flank both sides of the central window structure.
