TITANIC CHANGE FOR BONDI ICEBERGS
Bondi Icebergs Club:
1 Notts Ave, Bondi NSW

The iconic Bondi Icebergs Club looks like it’ll remain buoyant moving towards its 100th year with the new refurbishment. Designed and project managed by Sydney-based 2RKS Architecture + Design. Richard Salman, Director of 2RKS Architects says, “Part of the design brief was to create an atmosphere of warmth, invitation and comfort and competing with the best of any Eastern Suburbs venues without the pretence”.
Inspiration for the design of the Bondi Icebergs was drawn from the unique atmosphere and culture Bondi has given Sydney beach-siders and tourists worldwide for decades. Having grown up near a beach community in Long Island, NY, Richard drew experiences with a personal understanding of the beach culture to design for people with an ever-increasing desire for appealing venues with good food and atmosphere to enjoy with friends and family.
According to Kerrie Brien, Secretary Manager at the Icebergs, “We envisage a marketability for the club to advantage themselves as being a premier daytime and night time spot in Bondi — with the design by Richard and his team at 2RKS we really have achieved this”. Coupled with the ocean breeze and its iconic views, Bondi Icebergs’ fine food and drinks will have the look and feel to match its renowned location. The Bondi Icebergs Club has an ambience that is classy yet informal, fashionable yet beach-going and renewed yet familiar.
