This funky revival of the Tiki Bar Concept in the heart of Cape Town CBD was designed for award winning Mixologist and local personality, Travis Kuhn, who put forward a simple and clear brief: "Give us something Cape Town has never seen!"

​

Drawing from the French Polynesian roots of tiki culture, the design makes use of bold colours and timber detail paired with bold modern lighting to give the space a Miami "birdcage" feel, accented by bold botanical and wicker work accents. 

​

Local artists where employed to adorn the back wall with the flamingo motif, which adds undeniable character to the space.
