Most Beautiful Cafes in Melbourne
Not so long ago, a DIY paint job and some cheap second-hand furniture was enough to open a cafe. How things have changed. Cafes have arguably overtaken restaurants as the focal point for Melbourne’s collective design talent . Today’s designers work with marble, brass, hardwood, imported tiles and six-figure budgets. With so many talented architects and interior designers on the scene, it takes a lot to stand out. Many cafes just slip into the derivative pool of polished timber, white subway tiles and hanging Edison bulbs . Or did, back in 2015. The current “it” look involves rounded edges , lots of plants, metallic highlights and dusky “millennial pink". Some of our choices include these elements – trends have to start somewhere – but on the whole these interiors are strikingly unique.
