AUSTRALIAN DESIGN REVIEW’S 30UNDER30 CEMENTS ITSELF AS ONE FOR THE MEMORY BOOK • “If I was to rate this weekend out of 10, I’d give it 100,” Shona McElroy turns to me on the Sunday afternoon of Australian Design Review’s inaugural 30UNDER30 Creative Retreat. At this point, we have both kicked off our shoes and had our feet dangling in the pool. “It was above and beyond. It exceeded all my expectations,” McElroy smiles, as if catching her memories from a weekend she was still living.
SUNNY SIDE UP • The endless summer at the Bondi Pavilion is made even more endless by the recent addition of the Cox Architecture-designed café Glory Days, an ode to the faraway colour and wonder of European summers. Bare feet and damp swimmers are essential, and get ready to feel as if you’re in a Slim Aarons photograph.
