About SOL

Our Story & Vision

“What if the very heart of the city could feel like the edge of the ocean or an Italian hillside, somewhere you breathe deeper the moment you arrive?”

SOL Perth was born from a desire to create a restorative rooftop oasis in the heart of the city.

SOL Perth’s unique blend of architecture and natural beauty was inspired by the innovative spirit of Perth Design Week. Our rooftop sanctuary reflects the city’s creative energy and commitment to wellbeing.

Wellness for All – Offer premium, evidence-based practices, yoga, sauna, ice-bath therapy, without pretence or pressure

Urban Re-Wilding – Transform dormant rooftops into green, life-giving spaces that show how cities can heal us, not drain us

Community in Motion – Curate events that move body and spirit

2025 Launch: Opening our flagship rooftop oasis in Perth CBD.

2026+: Expanding the SOL model to other rooftops across Australia, one skyline at a time.

Always: Holding space for you to pause, breathe, and rediscover the joy of simply being alive.

Dafne Zaffaroni Bentley, an Italian interior designer who grew up where la bella vita flows as naturally as an ocean breeze, learned early that life is richest when we slow down, savour beauty, and share it with others. Together with her husband, Nick Zaffaroni Bentley, they transplanted that philosophy to Perth, a city they adore for its endless light, the salt-sweet wind that ruffles the Swan, and the steady breezes that draw them into nature to kitesurf and windsurf whenever the swell calls. For more than six years they’ve practised yoga, flowing at dawn, laughing through wobbly arm balances, and ending every session with a promise to live more mindfully.
