in a meet up that channels a classic '60s Palm Spring vibe mixed with Modern day glamour, what is now called the "Ivy" in a once rundown Sydney spot is open for business...

This hot new party spot features 18 bars, 9 restaurants, a swimming pools, and 2 rooftop penthouse suites...

The lounge is backed full of bamboo chairs, marble tables, mirrored consoles, and loads of lush velvet drapes...

Courtyards through out create an indoor outdoor feel with sunlight, plantery, and more lounging opportunities...

Amidst the various outdoor areas, you can find spots too cool off with a shower (fit for several) like shown above...

This place is bold with color and shapes, but just looking at this image I can tell all the detail that went into each piece, from the custom booth seating and tables, to the over-sized light fixtures above...I would love to dine here!!


Reminiscent of the "Viceroy" in some ways, I have no doubt that this joint is already a huge success...and now on my list of places to visit if I'm ever in Australia!!
