Cafe Sydney

Design


Dark timber, silver metalwork and floor-to-ceiling glass doors maximise Cafe Sydney's breathtaking views of Sydney harbour. Interior design by Hong Kong based John Morford complements the heritage of Customs House with Australia's trading ports and wine regions incorporated graphically into the design of the restaurant.
Recycled black butt timber flooring has been sourced from other demolished historical buildings in Sydney, and artist Angus McDonald's specially commissioned paintings of the Harbour Bridge adorn the main restaurant.

In addition to the original interior, the Lounge opened in June 2005.
Designed by Sydney based firm BKH, who is recognized and renowned for their contemporary vision in design today, the lounge compliments and invigorates the restaurant perfectly. Offering the ultimate lounging experience with a minimal edge and a large dramatic mirror wall as a significant feature.
