Designed
by Albano Daminato, the setting for pierside kitchen&bar is
a clever fresh take on the distinctive pared-down style and luxury
found in his design for marmalade restaurant and bar. Relating strongly
to its waterfront location the restaurant and bar will be animated
by shimmering light, water and marine traffic imagery.
Incorporating a palette of large glass panels, mirror, Italian and
Spanish stone, steel and blonde timber manipulated meticulously
within a soaring, spare white cubic space, the interior will reflect
changing natural light by day and provide a background for subtle
candlelit seaside dining by night.
The
more intimate interior bar space will allow maximum visibility both
from outside in and inside out. The place to be seen casually unobserved
with a lazy, sexy groove. Various forms of seating and tables within
the spaces will enhance the relaxed ambience.
The
alfresco space will allow larger groups of friends to gather in
a breezy, starlit location. The stylish venue to have coffee and
tea in the afternoon. Transforms into a subtle, sexy, sophisticated
and sultry space to have drinks late into the night. Communal benches
form part of this highly convivial gathering space for open air
camaraderie or canoodling under wide brimmed grey canvas umbrellas.
Graduating
with a bachelor's degree majoring in 'human environments', Albano
has since worked with progressive and respected design firms internationally,
including major collaborations with the Sydney firm 'Burley Katon
Halliday' and the Singapore studios of 'Kerry Hill Architects' -
his work to date has covered much of the design spectrum, from small
scale domestic projects, to prestigious fashion retail, museum and
institution, corporate and commercial through to hotel and resort
design.
