The design of Wallflower is a cross between Mid-Century Modern and 70’s Australian aesthetics. The space features a carefully curated selection of vintage goods. There are pieces of art available, featuring local artists each month, alongside unique lamps or lights and lounge chairs. The collection also includes over 500 records, dining chairs, and plants. For glassware enthusiasts, there are several different types of glassware to choose from. Additional eclectic items include a clock, an old payphone, a vintage bubble gum machine, and an old-timey radio. The space is also furnished with tables and features a Coca-Cola menu sign, vintage beer cans, vinyl DJ turntables and speakers, and a Polaroid camera.
