These materials were incorportated in the sleak naval theme
with custom curved solid surface bar top and seamless
interlaid stripped bar front. All the walls were cladded in
solid surface with conceal led lighting to the bottle and
glass displays. The choice of materials combined with the
seamless designed could allow the whole bar to be hosed
down.

Design Hub was commissioned to construct the slick new
400 seat BAIA bar and restaurant on an existing busy site at
Cockle Bay Wharf.
Design Hub manufactured and installed the custom pearl
solid surface for the construction of the bar and complete
internal fitout of all the wall linings and custom feature
items. Each part of this project was moulded and formed
into handcrafted shapes.
The results included stunning clad walls and bar surrounds
with stylised Italian gelato colours featuring wine displays,
custom funiture and a wall that moulded into a booth/
banquette area.

Design Hub was subcontracted for the new bar works to the
upstair Bar area.
This unique bar was constructed and backlit as one solid
structure. The end of the bar hung over the top of the stairs
and gave a look that the bar was suspended in mid air.
The challange was to construct the bar without seeing any
structure behind.
The lighting of the whole bar gave a spectacular look as it
was the major lighting source for the whole area.
Other works included banquette seating, custom lit coffee
tables and dry bar tables.
