DESIGN NAME: Tarentum
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Caffe Bar
INSPIRATION: Tarentum is located under the Ferris Wheel on the coast of Bao'an, Shenzhen, China. The main design idea was to integrate this cafe bar into the Bao’an Coastal Cultural Park and to make it a place, where visitors can enjoy their leisure time with a panoramic view of the Ferris Wheel, distant beaches, clear sea and blue sky.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Tarentum is a place designed in Ancient Greek style with Greek food and whisky lounge. When night falls, it transforms into a whisky bar, where people can have a drink in a comfortable and private atmosphere. The facade of the interior space of the building is warm ivory-colored cement. The design is represented with gentle cream tones to make people feel relaxed. Gray leather sofas and blue satin cushions echo the blue tone of the windows, as if a touch of blue on the Mediterranean Sea.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: TRT under the blue sky and white clouds allows people to indulge in the pursuit of the sunshine, unrestricted by time and space and full of Greek flavor. When night falls, TRT transforms into a whisky bar, where people can have a drink in a comfortable and private atmosphere. The space under the full moon is filled with unique fragrance. The dim candlelight shakes slightly under the music. The smell of wine brings a full-time unforgettable experience.
When all the folding glass doors near the windows are opened, it creates a sense of blurred space that blends the interior and exterior together and brings visitors closer to the Ferris Wheel.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project was completed in February 2021, in Shenzhen, China

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The facade of the interior space is designed with warm cream and Santorini blue tones, mixed with silver tone with metal elements of placer gold. Gray leather sofas and blue satin cushions echo the blue tone of the windows, as if a touch of blue on the Mediterranean Sea. The designers specially designed the external window next to the coffee bar as an open hand-brewed coffee area. The abbreviation of the brand name TRT on the wall with its round edges looks especially delicate and gentle, and adds a sense of design and practicality to the space. It is designed not only for demonstrating the brand and visual aesthetic effect, but also for solving the function of placing goods.
There is also a sunken area designed next to the Whisky Bar. The designer used a half-height cultural stone to divide the entire space and enclose the private area. It allows the customers enjoy the whisky night under the moon-shaped cement chandelier shining with the light of the night sky.
