Queen Elizabeth II Courts of Law, Brisbane, Supreme and District Court building in Brisbane, Australia.
The Queen Elizabeth II Courts of Law is a judicial building with 39 courtrooms spread across 19 floors at 415 George Street in Brisbane. The structure was specifically designed as Queensland's central courthouse, serving both the Supreme and District courts.
The building opened in 2012 and houses the Supreme Court Library Queensland, which has roots dating back to 1862. The relocation of this historic library to the 12th floor represented a major consolidation of Queensland's judicial operations into a single location.
The building houses the Sir Harry Gibbs Legal Heritage Centre, where you can explore exhibitions about Queensland's legal traditions through documents and displays. Contemporary artworks are scattered throughout different areas of the building, reflecting the role of justice in society.
All visitors must go through security screening when entering the building, similar to airport procedures. Guided tours are available on Saturdays and require booking in advance.
The building features double-skin glass facades and raised wooden floors that work with displacement air conditioning to reduce energy needs. These design choices are visible throughout and create a distinctive indoor environment.
