They Thought I was Nuts

d’Arenberg Cube Restaurant . Mc Laren Vale, South Australia, Chester Osborn

I built a model (cube it was)
They said ridiculous
Chester it’s a no-go
They thought that I was nuts

It will not ever happen son
My father said to me
Replied I, yes it will dad
Just you wait and see

My dad he is still coming to
Grips about the cube
He can’t believe it’s working
D’Arenberg, my cube



Launched in a South Australian vineyard in 2017
the d’Arenberg Cube has collected eight state
and national design and tourism prizes including
the Premier’s award for excellence at the 2018
tourism award


If you’re ever down my neck of the woods
I’ll shout you lunch there
