C.C. Babcoq is a fun and quirky fit out for a rotisserie, carvery and cocktail bar in Cronulla. The namesake C.C. Babcock from The Nanny is sassy and bold. Her personality has been adopted for the interiors, with a fusion of a coastal influences to reference the beachside location.

The name, C.C. Babcoq is adapted from the character from The Nanny, C.C. Babcock. We had a lot of fun abstracting her character and exploring how we could bring that out in the interior. We looked to stills from the show, scenes, outfits and lines that could provide inspiration for an equally ‘sassy’ interior, whilst fitting in with the Cronulla foodie scene.

We collaborated with a mural artist to inject colour and pattern onto the 4m high rear wall. Lymesmith’s mural “Rockpool” is clearly visible from the street and stimulates the interest of the passersby.

We used curves in the shape of the counter, soft edges on seating and design details such as terrazzo floor inlays to reference the art deco building the site is located. High quality, yet fun and durable materiality was employed, in particular, the stand out feature being the green terrazzo bar.
