Morning After
Corner Vulture and Cambridge Streets, West End
Ah, the morning after. Rather than wallowing about it pain, it is time to forget about your night-before regrets and embrace the new day with open arms … and mouths. West End cafe – aptly titled Morning After – is here to make the early hours of the day something to look forward to. Owner Yianni Passaris worked closely with designer Alexander Lotersztain of derlot to create a space that is bright and welcoming. Alexander’s distinct design aesthetic is evident throughout the refreshing space, with light from wide open windows casting shadows over clean white and timber furnishings, brass finishes and tufts of greenery sprouting from pots and hanging from the ceiling. These sleek elements are contrasted by astroturf-looking felt bench seats and bar stools, and a petite neon sign on the back wall declaring the cafe’s moniker. The minimalist white, brass and green colour scheme has been carried through to even the finest of details, including custom-painted espresso milk jugs.
