A wide view of a modern, multi-station food service or counter area within a commercial space. The central element is a long, curved counter split into several sections, all featuring the signature pale pink, vertically ridged paneling and light-colored countertops with gold trim. The countertop on the left section has a small barrier with a brass handrail and a yellow-textured warning strip on the floor, indicating a step or ramp. Above both the left and right counters, a continuous built-in shelving unit with warm lighting displays decorative items on the left and colorful jars of food ingredients on the right. In the center, there is a visible professional kitchen section with stainless steel equipment. The floor is a speckled grey terrazzo.

The base of the counter is clad in the same pale pink, ridged paneling seen in previous images. The floor is a speckled grey terrazzo. Along the right side, there is a row of small, modern circular tables with metal bases and stools. The café is encased in large, dark-framed glass walls that look out onto a lush, multi-level atrium with abundant tropical plants and a visible exterior staircase with light-colored treads.

Engaged by Mirvac, the Unita QLD team delivered this stunning space that’s fuelling the working bees of 80 Ann Street with some of the city’s best coffee and cuisine.

Designed by the creative powerhouse, Studio Spillane, this hospitality fitout occupies an intriguing wishbone-shaped tenancy that’s split between a quick-serve cafe and a dine-in bistro.

The inviting space incorporates soothing warm tones that are subtly contrasted with accents of Terrazzo, brass and honed Australian Emperador.

An exterior view of a modern café entrance. The entrance is a curved glass wall with dark framing, featuring a revolving glass door and another standard door. A set of shallow, curved stone steps with textured warning surfaces leads up to the entrance, flanked by brass handrails. Above the entrance, the ceiling is covered in parallel wooden slats. Inside the café, a small, circular display counter is visible, along with simple tables and chairs. To the right, a wall features warm, backlit shelving. Potted plants are positioned on either side of the entrance, blending the exterior and interior spaces.

Fitout and construction

A long, curved service counter or kitchen pass-through in a restaurant or cafe. The front of the counter is clad in light pink, vertical, ridged tiling, matching the style of the previously described bar areas. The countertop is a light color, and the floor is speckled grey terrazzo. Above the counter, a built-in shelving unit with white cubbies spans the length, displaying tall glass jars filled with colorful dried ingredients like pasta, peppers, and beans, serving as both storage and decoration. Copper-toned pendant lights hang down over the counter from the shelving unit. The background shows a glimpse into a stainless steel professional kitchen area with stacked plates and supplies.
A curved bar counter in a public or commercial space. The bar is clad in soft, pale pink subway tiles with a subtle, matte finish. The countertop is light-colored and wraps around the front and side of the bar, which features a beer tap system. Behind the counter, a large, built-in shelving unit with square cubbies is used to display various bottles of spirits, glassware, and decorative round lights. The ceiling is a light wood slat or perforated panel, and the floor is a speckled grey terrazzo. Large windows show an adjacent outdoor or atrium area with seating and greenery. The overall design is modern with warm, inviting pastel colors.

The area is paved with light brown stone. Above the garden, a modern concrete and wood-slat structure curves inward, featuring a large, irregular skylight. The skylight contains an image or display of vibrant pink and white cherry blossom or jacaranda tree canopy against a light blue sky, making the ceiling appear as an open, blooming vista. In the background, there are multi-story sections of the building connected by a glass walkway. The overall design emphasizes biophilic architecture with natural materials and abundant plant life.

The planter box also incorporates built-in booth seating with red cushions along its edge. A large, smooth grey pillar stands prominently near the center.
