The Ida Bar by Sibling Architecture
The Ida Bar is the only licensed venue on the University of Melbourne’s Parkville Campus—a vibrant and inclusive space designed for students, staff, and visitors. More than just a bar, it serves as a hub for dining, working, relaxing, and socialising, with a full commercial kitchen and a mobile DJ booth that transforms the space for events. Located within the 1970s Doug McConnell building—the interior was designed by Sibling Architecture to reflect student life today, balancing flexibility, colour, and a playful approach to form.
