 The concept is born from the entry: the facade is a large screen and on the waiting esplanade irregular benches were located, these are connected to the reception through a tunnel of arrows: a fully insulated box of stripes on floor and ceiling. 

Because of the juxtaposition of different rooms with which the shell is formed, an irregular inner form was generated, we worked with these difficulties accentuating them and making them motives of the project, different continuous stripes arises from the floor and goes up to the walls and back, wrapping the spaces transversally at the same pace as there are different heights of the ceilings, forming a natural shelter, these bands are almost parallel lines, they finish at the back on a theatrically way whit a dance floor and stage. 

Three main rooms are linked to the vast central space, the first is integrated with a huge bar that winds through the curved walls integrating the three bars as one, the customers, food and waiters, large volumes were placed as monitors that generate polychrome images, reflecting the textures, colors and lights of the place. The stripes passing on each side of the DJ cabin take a carpet to the lounge room, the most private and serene area of the site, with its own bar and music. The third room is the scenario for shows, separated by a curtain. 

The project takes up forgotten items and materials, giving them a new expression and incorporating them to the project as an experiment: velvets, tergal, glass mirror, carpeted walls, glass spheres, curves, etc. 

The colors are key to identifying both the spatial intent, as in the design of its furniture, gray and black is almost the total space, red form accents for both lines and the added items, mirrors are melted on the site as a fuse element and distorts chromatic events on the place.
