Perched high above the bustling streets of Sydney’s CBD, Jimmy’s Rooftop at The Ivy is a feast for the senses. Known for its vibrant hospitality scene, Merivale has outdone itself once again, delivering an elevated experience that’s equal parts chic design haven and cool culinary destination.
Jimmy’s Rooftop blends bold Mediterranean-meet-Moroccan design with relaxed upholstery, modernist furniture pieces, warm hues and 70’s touches. Working with George Livissianis, the design team have paired textured surfaces, lush greenery and thoughtfully curated furnishings to create a true inner-city escape from the CBD.
It’s not only the cool furniture (and THAT pool!) that catches your eye…step beyond the threshold and you'll be hit with Basil Bangs bold ombre umbrellas around the pool area. Featuring our iconic Italian Collection fabric in Ombre ‘Terra’, these mocha beauties are functional as well as lookers.
The earthy gradient of Ombre ‘Terra’ feels right at home in this Mediterranean-inspired setting, adding a subtle pop of warmth to the rooftop’s eclectic bohemian aesthetic. Designed to provide style and durability, the umbrellas not only elevate the look of the space but also offer much-needed shade during Sydney’s sweltering summer days.
We design with both beauty and function in mind, and working with Jimmy’s Rooftop was a great opportunity to showcase how our umbrellas fit into high-traffic hospitality spaces.

What do we think about the new look rooftop? Whether you’re stopping in for a post-work drink or settling in for a leisurely lunch fresh off the charcoal grill, the seamless mix of design and comfort will make you want to kick back and stay a while.
And of course we're biased, but we think the understated Basil Bangs umbrellas are just one example, in a sea of special touches, of how thoughtful design choices can transform a space into somewhere you’ll remember...and want to come back to.
