From the Resene News – issue 3/2004

Catnap - Bunk Backpackers
Brisbane tourists looking for somewhere to sleep can now head for Bunk, a large backpackers lodge in Gipps Street, Fortitude Valley.

From tip to toe, this lodge employs consistent imagery both inside and out to ensure it is memorable to lodgers and likely to be on the tips of their tongues when recommending places to stay.

Outside the building is protected by Resene X-200 waterproofing membrane tinted to the warm off-white Resene Bianca, which acts as a backdrop for the Resene Lumbersider tinted to Resene Pohutukawa (deep red) branding. The striking red on near white can be seen from a long distance - the perfect advertisement when you are trying to attract those travelling by foot.

Inside Resene Zylone Sheen is seemingly everywhere in a mix of hues from The Range collection. Light hues meet bright and bold as different spaces are defined by their wall colour.

Great location, full of colour and space, this backpackers lodge is head and shoulders above the usual fare the unwitting backpacker stumbles into.
