Auterra Wine Bar invites guests to explore the subtlety and complexities of wine through colour, texture and theme. Familiar, but new, Auterra Wine Bar is a sensory pleasure, an escape.

Auterra - meaning of the earth - is celebration of wine. A sibling to a fine dining experience across the road, the wine bar forges its own path. A place that exudes timeless authenticity and character. It was important that the space felt established and warm, a welcoming neighbourhood local.

Inspired by the varied natural pigment of wine, the space unfolds with a complex layering of colour and texture. Beginning with deep reds and burgundy’s, blending into blushing pinks and oranges, and finally transitioning to sparkling yellows in the private dining space upstairs. No matter how many times a patron visits Auterra they will be surprised to discover something new. This sense of exploration engages patrons and provides a sensory experience that keeps them coming back for more.

Abundant, yet sophisticated, the material palette includes Australian hardwoods, copper and brass, materials will patinate over time, adding character and personality. Auterra is complex, bold, inviting, and exciting – a place that draws diners into the space and delivers a satisfying and stimulating experience centered around the enjoyment of fine wine. Its vibrant and fresh character is married with a feeling that it has always been here, that it belongs here.

About the
Professional

IF Architecture believes in the power of architecture and interior design to improve your every day. In homes that are beautiful, nurturing and highly functional; in restaurants, bars and cafes that create delightful experiences for customers, and support efficiency and profitability for business owners; in shops that give authentic physical expression to brands while enhancing retail performance; and in workplaces that energise employees, foster creativity, and maximise productivity.

Our practice is built on authentic, open, warm relationships with likeminded clients, suppliers and collaborators. We begin every project by listening to our clients’ objectives. These are paramount, but we’re not afraid to challenge thinking to get the best outcome. We work to achieve our clients’ goals through a process of conversation, investigation, creative exploration, and architectural rigour.

IF Architecture is always thoughtful about context, telling stories through architecture and interior design that resonate with place, history, community, and character. Our work is a reflection of the broader landscape, and in turn seeks to enhance it.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
