Fantasy World with a Kinky Twist

A group of  young designers teamed up to design a front of house fit-out for Australian pastry chef, Adriano Zumbo, or mostly know as  the “Sweet Assassin” The only one requirement from the well know pastry chef was that the store include pink in its color palette. The designers included signage and furniture, combining the concept of  fantasy world with a slightly kinky twist. The mirror-like plastic panels lining the interior were vacuum-formed, metalized and given their reflective finish from aluminum vapor. The light of neon pink ‘Zumbo’ signage repetivly reflects the shop’s signature color onto the metalized panels, achieving a curiously exciting ambiance.

The “Melting Candy’ sofas were made  from up-cycled furniture adorned with self-expanding foam and silicone. The unique seating units are meant to function as both furniture and art.
