Tasked with redesigning this restaurant, our challenge was to forge uniqueness within existing structural constraints. The concept birthed a secret artistic cave, fusing eccentric elegance and dramatic flair. Dark palettes with color pops, hand-painted prehistoric-inspired ceilings, and strategic lighting created a sensorial space. The low mezzanine ceilings intensified the cave effect, incorporating mirrors for visual depth and a spacious DJ booth to harmonize dining and entertainment.
Transitioning into the restroom, a perforated metal sliding door reveals a space where black textured walls meet electric red ceilings. Smokey mirrors offset angled corners, tube lights grace a central faucet over a cylindrical black sink, forming an immersive experience at Bongo Bar.
In the basement level, stunning neon hues exude from the ceiling, lighting the dining and bar area.
The modern neon-red light, in contrast with the organic painted walls, contemporary styling, industrial finishes and the golden elevator mix up themes and textures in a unique way, creating an identity of its own.
