*포니 레스토랑 [ Woods Bagot ] Pony Restaurant

시드니 외곽에 위치한 포니 레스토랑의 가장 특징적인 인테리어디 디자인은 마굿간으로 부터 영감을 얻어 재구성된 형상과 텍스쳐가 주는 포근함과 안락함이다. 말굽 또는 말의 유연한 형태를 닮은 블랙 스틸 립은 레스토랑 내부를 20미터의 길이로 굽이쳐 흐르며 공간의 아이텐티를 정의한다. 이러한 다이나믹한 요소와 빈티지 재료 -노출된 벽돌, 거친 스틸 마감..- 의 만남은 공간을 더욱더 풍부하게 만들며 이곳을 이용하는 고객들에게 맛있는 음식은 물론 맛있는 공간을 맛보게 한다.

The first Pony restaurant outside Sydney has opened on Brisbane’s Eagle Street Pier, with Woods Bagot’s interiors centring around the sight and smell of an authentic charcoal grill.
Drawing from the texture and forms of pony stables, Woods Bagot’s design team created a two-metre steel ribbon that winds through the space, implying soft metal that can be forged and shaped, reminiscent of a horse shoe or the curved line of a lasso loop.
The stables were also evoked through choice of raw materials, exposed brick, raw steel, rough-sawn timber, wash troughs and exposed roughneck copper pipework, combined with comfortable leather upholstered furniture like a horse saddle.
The food was also a major inspiration for the design of the restaurant, with the layout of the space centring around the theatre of the open rotisserie and grill, which allows patrons to view the spirited chefs, headed by Brisbane-born Damian Heads.
Pony Brisbane has inherited the brand’s honest, flavour driven menu, while the indoor/outdoor dining provides a distinctly Brisbane twist. The restaurant features a number of dining spaces, with indoor transitioning to outdoor via an open, timber decked interior space. The result is a series of dining options, from open, communal dining areas, to more intimate banquettes and booths.
