  • Alkira House is a historic building in Melbourne, Australia. It is widely regarded as one of Melbourne’s most stunning examples of Art Deco architecture. Built in 1936 by architect, James Wardrop, Alkira House is located at 18 Queen Street. James Wardrop is also the architect responsible for designing the Shrine of Remembrance. One of the most striking features of the building is the use of Glazed architectural terra-cotta and glass brick. It was, in fact, the first building in Australia to use glass bricks in its construction. Cleverly designed, the black and white vertical terracotta tiles on the façade take the eye on a journey over six levels to the 'empire-state-like' steeple on top, forming an architectural spine through the centre of the building. Alkira House is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register and has at least one apartment available for short term stays on the 2nd floor at Apartment Alkira. (en)

Construida en 1936 por el arquitecto James Wardrop, Alkira House está ubicada en 18 Queen Street. James Wardrop es también el arquitecto responsable del diseño del Santuario del Recuerdo. ​ Una de las características más llamativas del edificio es el uso de terracota arquitectónica vidriada y ladrillo de vidrio. De hecho, fue el primer edificio en Australia en utilizar ladrillos de vidrio en su construcción. Con un diseño inteligente, las baldosas de terracota verticales en blanco y negro de la fachada atraen la atención en un viaje de seis niveles hasta el campanario de estilo imperio en la parte superior, formando una columna arquitectónica en el centro del edificio. Alkira House figura en el Registro del Patrimonio Victoriano y tiene al menos un apartamento disponible para estancias cortas en el segundo piso de Apartment Alkira. (es)
