SPEAKEASY KITCHEN BAR

SOUTH YARRA, VICTORIA

Speakeasy Kitchen Bar is located on Chapel Street in South Yarra in a building dating back to 1885 and with a shopfront only 3m wide.

The brief was to design a venue that offered patrons an intimate drinking and dining experience. Our design concept was driven by the idea of reveal and conceal and the connection to original Speakeasies and what they stood for.

New building works included the removal of several walls in order to open up the space and establish a strong visual connection between the front bar area and rear kitchen and dining areas.

Feature design elements include custom chandeliers and matching mirror frames, recycled library ladders used for wine display and graffiti art on the outside walls. The design of the motif for the folding metal screen to the shopfront was derived from the patterns found in some of the original iron lacework on the building.
