Claiming the rear of a warehouse and side lane this small bar has allowed a penetration to the lost interior laneways of a city very much about façades. A huge door and flip-up window signal the bar’s presence and the interior fitout reveals a strong and stylish industrial aesthetic in response to its original purpose. The selected site has allowed cross connections to adjacent retail and restaurants and the design has created intimate interior and exterior spaces to inhabit and enjoy.
