The inspirations for me were summer roadtrips to Montauk when I was living in New York, the roadside clam shacks that flip up their shutters and awnings for the summer months, with umbrellas and benches scattered around on the pebbled ground. I interpreted this to fit the space on Challis Ave, bringing the beach to Potts Point. After visiting Whitstable in Kent, I was left with a love of the sand on the floor and chalkboards, a casual approach to dining but with really good quality food. 

All the high tables were covered in chalkboard oilcloth that can be easily wiped down and the table legs were based on a table I saw in Amsterdam with a beautiful picnic feel to them. The metal shades over the counter were customised with red stripes and the longitude and latitude of 22 Challis Ave.
