Monde, Kent Town, by Otello Projects

Some of the best things in life are hidden in plain sight. Kent Town is brimming with those rare gems. There's hole-in-the-wall cafes that know your order like the back of your hand, cruisy bars and distilleries that make a mean spritz, decadent eateries, a mouth-watering gelateria, and a contemporary art gallery for those in the know. That's barely scratching the surface. At the verge of the city, Kent Town is the best of both worlds. You're in the thick of it, as much as you're in your own private sanctuary. 

Aesthetically, Monde soaks in the world around it, taking cues from its surrounds in every aspect of the design. The palette pays homage to subdued native botanicals, breathing a sense of warmth and earthiness to the interiors. They say don’t mix patterns, but rules are made to be broken. A subtle, yet sophisticated mixture of natural textures, block colours, tile details, and exposed finishes exude an effortless style that seamlessly complements yours.
