Situated amongst the clouds, 305 metres above the heart of the CBD, Sydney Tower is the city’s highest and most iconic event space.
Further enhancing the Sydney Tower venue, Rohrig recently designed and constructed the new 360 Bar, a custom curved bar offering a contemporary setting and breathtaking views. This was the sixth project for Rohrig with the Trippas White Group.
Uniquely, the bar spins with the floor of the room, presenting one of the biggest constructions challenges on this project. All works had to be co-ordinated to accommodate this factor, and any works under the floor could only be completed within certain times. We also had to custom engineer our hoarding to allow it to spin with the room as the ceiling is fixed and does not move.
The height of the Sydney Tower’s 360 Bar also added complexity to this project. With only small passenger lifts to reach the site 305 metres above Sydney’s CBD, large components had to be broken down into sections and constructed in situ. Stainless steel had to be brought up via the lift and welded onsite due to limited access.
Prior to the build, a life-size mock-up of the design was built in the Rohrig NSW warehouse for the client to review. This process enabled complete transparency and aligned assumptions for both parties. All stakeholders were clear on what they could expect, providing peace of mind for everyone that the finished project would function right the first time.
Some of the more notable features of the new bar include LED Backlit Panelling, installation of Beer Keg chiller system, new floor finishes, and a new standing bar.
We are delighted to have been a part of reinvigorating this icon, ensuring it remains one of Sydney’s most revered boutique venues.
