Hao Chi is a Chinese Yum Cha restaurant with bars, located in Newcastle, Sydney.
Drawing inspiration from the timeless elegance of 1930s Shanghai, seamlessly incorporates local cultural elements to enhance its allure. It invites patrons to engage and immerse themselves through thoughtful insertions that disrupt conventional Asian-centric dining norms.

The design concept revolves around the “Golden Age” of Shanghai, focusing on luxurious textures, rich colors, and opulent furnishings that reflect the era. The concept also subtly integrates Australian cultural motifs to tailor the ambiance to the local audience. The idea is to create an engaging environment where diners can feel transported to another time and place, encouraging exploration and interaction with the space.
