Lusso Tapas brings relaxed, convivial Mediterranean dining to Sydney’s Rouse Hill.
February 9th, 2012
Designer Reema Bisher of Level Orange has been inspired by the tapas bars of Spain in creating the fitout for Lusso Tapas.


The interior is dark and moody. Exposed brick walls and concrete floors give a raw, earthy feel.


A clever use of lighting adds warmth; illuminated wine stores along the dining room wall and a row of pendant lights overhead brighten up the long, narrow space.

Black and white family photographs adorn the ceiling, representing the convivial, social element of tapas dining.
