| DESIGN NAME: GanBei PRIMARY FUNCTION: A Lounge Bar INSPIRATION: The design concept roots deep in the Chinese historical period drama. There’s an old Chinese saying that alcohol heals best among all medicines. Through transcreating a traditional Chinese medicine shop into something fashionable, a modern time travel fantasy was constructed. Guests drinking at the bar are in front of the decorated medicine cabinets, just as people seeking for prescription in the old time. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project GanBei, meaning cheers in Chinese, transformed a partitionless room for rent into a timeless afterdark lounge. Located in the cradle of cutting-edge technologies of Taiwan, this vintage bar serves hi-tech engineers and yetties as a grand escape from reality, crossing through space and time with whiskey and wine. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The hidden LED lighting behind the bartender is situational. It can be adjusted via microchip. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: This project started in July 2018 in Hsinchu City in Taiwan and finished in August 2018. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Interior Space and Exhibition Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The production aims at delivering a high contrast and high saturation interior space. With ultra-black cement paint applied to the ceiling and stone-patterned PVC flooring, pine blue and violet dyed velvet seats pop out like nebula in space. The LED-inserted ceiling lamp upon the bar is made from the main beam of a Taiwanese traditional house, adding texture of time to the cosmos. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 60 square meter single-floor partitionless space located on the 2nd floor of a house for rent. The length of the bar is 3 meters long. TAGS: Lounge bar, Lounge, bar, drinking, fusion RESEARCH ABSTRACT: To create historical atmosphere with matching details, the design team carefully examined the Qing dynasty and the modern Chinese history for insights. All the cabinet hardware (handles, locks) are vintage from genuine antiques. The selection of accessories also reflects an intentional sense of conflict between eastern/western, vintage/modern, and inhibited/exhibited. CHALLENGE: Since there was no pipe system on site, water drainage was the biggest challenge of this project. Floating floor was applied under the bar to fix the problem, with customized seat height and hardware colour toning to reduce the sense of height difference by 18 cm.
