12 Australian hospitality projects have made the international shortlist for the 2014 Restaurant and Bar Design Awards.

A total of 20 Australian projects were nominated for the international awards program before the list was trimmed to 827 on 2 July.

Seven Australian projects have been shortlisted for that category, including Alfredo's (Brisbane) by Derlot, Alpha (Sydney) and China Republic (Sydney) by DS17, Farmhouse by Nicholas Gurney (Sydney), Nordburger (Adelaide) by Genesin Studio & Peter Jay Deering, Papi Chulo (Sydney) by Akin Creative and Penfolds Magill Estate (Adelaide) Restaurant by Pascale Gomes-Mcnabb Design.
