Plumridge House is a shining example of the preservation of one of Brisbanes most iconic art deco buildings, thanks to the vision and passion of Dave Allan.  The Allan family purchased the building in the 90s, and it was always a dream for Dave to restore the building to its original state. An avid fan and collector of the arts, together with his son Duncan, they came up with the idea to turn this former confectionery factory into 52 boutique offices that would offer a different feel to the typical corporate office space in the city.

​

Today, Duncan has followed in his fathers footsteps, remaining enthusiastic and supportive of the Brisbane art scene, continuing to be a collector himself. Having a ​​​​​​thought to transform the gleaming, bright, towering hallways of Plumridge House, into an art gallery, Duncan approached Buckley Lowe, whose small Hamilton  Gallery was fast gaining a reputation for exhibiting emerging and affordable art, to create this gallery - B.LOWE Art Gallery @ Plumridge House. Sharing parallel vision and passion for contemporary art they are seeking to give Brisbane a whole new concept in accessible art for everyone to approach in a stunning, yet casual and inviting environment.

​

The gallery features emerging and established artists and is open during business hours for patrons to roam the halls and admire the works at their leisure.
