New ‘Backyard’ at Lyons House

GEELONG’S Mr Paparazzi has launched a “ridiculously funky” new clubbing room at his Home House nightclub.
Darryn Lyons said The Backyard had a “crazy” mixture of fake lawn flooring, a 3D Chesterfield sofa feature spanning one wall and a glow-in-the-dark ceiling.
“I call it the glow-in-the-dark Sistine Chapel of Geelong,” he said.
The ceiling feature was decorated with syringes to achieve the desired look.
“The ceiling has a combination of lots of pink, green and Tiffany blue – it’s like my hair.”
Lyons said the room also featured a Hollywood-style make-up area near the bar.
“I hope girls love it.”
Lyons says the “radical” and colourful design would “bring a new vibrancy” to the club and make it “a lot more fun”.
“We keep renovating different parts of the place to keep it ridiculously funky and provide a way-out party place for Geelong.”
Home House officially opened The Backyard last Saturday.
Patrons were treated to various combinations of Captain Morgans’ spiced rum cocktails while dancing to DJ Keith’s tunes.
Lyons, who rose to prominence as a paparazzi agency boss, also operates Elephant & Castle Hotel in McKillop St .
