Dandelion Bar, Kitchen and Distillery is multi-faceted hospitality venue that embraces the generosity of open space yet challenges the traditional shopping-center hospitality offering. This 720m2, 500 capacity venue spreads over two floors and looks over 鈥淭he West Deck鈥� precinct. The project design narrative explores the lifecycle of the Dandelion flower from germination through to maturity, mirroring the regeneration of the broader Karrinyup shopping centre.
Dandelion is a culmination of detailed finishes and functional joinery, collated with an eclectic edit of colour that breaks up volume and programme. It captures a warm, inviting footprint that cultivates a flexible space for drinkers, diners and staff alike, balanced in visual aesthetics to marry the guests other sensory experiences. Dandelion is a collaborative balance between design and function that embodies a benchmark for neighbourhood gatherings and genuine hospitality and social exchange.
