The Tilbury Hotel in Woolloomooloo, Australia by Luchetti Krelle

The design took its inspiration from the local surrounds of Cronulla. Colours were derived from the golden hues of Cronulla Beach at dusk and the dramatic contrast of a sunset over the bay at dusk.

Modern manipulations of materials against existing weatherboard ensured it felt like a seaside location whilst more industrial elements kept the space raw but approachable. Our take on the perfect beachside café.
