Sydney isn’t just about sun, surf, and the Harbour Bridge—it’s a powerhouse of creativity with a design scene that’s as dynamic as its skyline. From branding studios to indie designers, the city’s creatives thrive in a mash-up of high-end aesthetics and raw experimentation. With type-inspired murals in Newtown, exhibitions at the Powerhouse Museum, or the studios shaping Australia’s design future, Sydney knows how to mix business with bold ideas.

The Design Kids Sydney City Guide
Our City Hosts have selected their favourite studios, the best cafe’s to settle in with your laptop and a book, meeting spots for client meetings and design shops for you to spend your afternoons.
The Old Clare Hotel
A hotel, bar, and workspace all rolled into one. With interiors that blend industrial chic and vintage charm, it’s a hotspot for designers grabbing a drink, meeting clients, or just soaking up creative vibes in Chippendale.
Utopia Goods
A dreamy textiles and print studio in Paddington that celebrates Australian flora and fauna through stunning hand-illustrated designs. A must-visit for pattern lovers and print geeks.
The Bearded Tit
A creative dive bar in Redfern where Sydney’s designers, artists, and weirdos gather. Expect bold interiors, quirky performances, and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to sketch on a napkin.
Studio Neon
A hidden creative space in Alexandria where food, design, and events collide. Part studio, part dining experience, it’s a great spot to network with other creatives while enjoying top-tier eats in a beautifully designed space.
