The recent completion of ‘1st on Wharf’ sports bar at Twin Towns Services Club is the first stage of a major renovation of the existing club.

The original client brief was to create a masculine environment (or ‘man cave’ as some described) to suit an essentially male client base.

This is largely achieved through the use of rustic materials – recycled brick, grey iron bark timber and concrete. Herringbone patterned timber wall paneling, back of bar tiles and carpet/fabric designs add visual interest throughout the space.

The main bar is formed with a concrete hob and recycled timber top. Large industrial pendants suspended over the bar create a focal point in the centre of the space.

The aptly named Ladies Lounge is a welcome retreat from the main bar space, and is intended to be more feminine in feel.  This is achieved through the use of warm timber paneling, soft up-lighting and more feminine style furniture and fabrics in gold and plum tones.
