The Strand Arcade has been part of Sydney since 1892. Its Victorian ironwork, tessellated floors and soaring glass roof have made it one of the city’s most loved spaces, a place where Australian craft and design has always found a home.

Mondial by Nadia has been here for 17 years.

The boutique was designed by Nadia in collaboration with award-winning architects Lawless and Meyerson. Underfoot, custom Catherine Martin carpet runs wall to wall. At the back, a grand spiral staircase leads up to Nadia’s studio, where new pieces are sketched, considered and brought to life.

It is a space designed to be comfortable, not intimidating. Come and sit. Look at the collection. Ask questions. There is no expectation to know what you’re looking for before you arrive.
