The Spanish group Roca, a global leader in bathroom products, opens a new space in Sydney that goes beyond the traditional showroom to become a meeting point for industry professionals and a showcase of innovation and contemporary design.
In the heart of Surry Hills, one of Sydney's most creative neighbourhoods, Roca Group has opened the doors of its new Sydney Gallery — an iconic space that brings together contemporary design, architectural heritage, and professional dialogue, further consolidating its presence in the Australian market. The gallery joins an international network of cultural and design spaces in cities such as Barcelona, Madrid, London, Berlin, Lisbon, Shanghai, and São Paulo.
Housed within a two-storey heritage building, the space was designed by international studio DKO, reinterpreting the existing architecture through a contemporary lens. The balance of light, materials, and space creates a sensory experience in which the bathroom is revealed as a place of calm, innovation, and lifestyle. Under one roof, the group's two global brands, Roca and LAUFEN, coexist, each with its own identity and aesthetic vision, demonstrating that interior design can be both functional and sophisticated.
The opening of this space in Australia is not an isolated gesture, but rather a further demonstration of the group’s strategy to strengthen its international expansion. Just a few months earlier, in December 2025, Roca Group had opened its first Gallery in India, in New Delhi, strengthening its presence in one of the world’s most promising markets. Sydney is the latest stop on that journey for a brand that conceives design as a universal language, capable of transcending borders without compromising its identity.
But Sydney Gallery is far more than an opening or an exhibition space: it is confirmation that Australia has become central to the brand's future vision. Designed as a hub for professional exchange, the gallery will bring together architects, designers, and industry specifiers for events and conversations centred on the role of design in contemporary life.
Founded in 1917 and present in 170 countries with 78 production centres, Roca Group has built its reputation on a vision of design that embraces both craftsmanship and innovation. With this opening in Sydney, the company reaffirms its commitment to the Australian market and demonstrates that, after more than a century of history, that philosophy remains as relevant as ever.
