These Melbourne Venues Have Been Nominated for the 2017 Eat Drink Design Awards
The shortlist for Australia and New Zealand’s only hospitality design awards program has officially dropped.
Insta-worthy eats and drinks are one thing, but a world-class food scene isn't built on the edible stuff alone. There's also a stack of gorgeous design work behind the most memorable hospitality venues and it's this very aspect that's celebrated at the annual Eat Drink Design Awards.
As Australia and New Zealand's only hospitality design awards program, the Eat Drink Design Awards recognise hospo design gems across both countries, from restaurants, bars, and cafes, through to temporary spaces.
While the 2017 award winners won't be chosen by the jury until November, the shortlist was revealed today and, as expected, it's packed full of all those cafes, bars, and restaurants your inner style nerd has been drooling over this past year or so. Local nominees for Best Bar Design include Hecker Guthrie's revamp of The George on Collins, Studio Y.'s work on Stomping Ground Brewery and Biasol for Mordialloc's Bang Bang.
Mim Design for Au79, Six Degrees Architects for Cromwell STREAT and FOolscap Studio's compact design for Sensory Lab are among the projects shortlisted for Best Cafe Design, while the likes of Uncle Collins Street, Anchovy, the new Wilson & Market and Architects EAT's all-day venue Abacus are being considered for the Best Restaurant Design gong.
Other categories being selected include Best Installation Design, Best Identity Design, and Best Retail Design. The winners will be announced on Tuesday, November 14 in Melbourne. For the full list of nominees, visit their website.
