architecture design
The full moon, hanging above the hotel, which we saw on the first day of departure to the facility, gave us the idea the concept idea. The bright stars, air, forest, mountains and mountain river at the foot of the hotel are impressive and remind of the important, therefore the design is a continuation of the environment that goes inside. The same natural materials are used, mountain stones-cobblestones, settle in the corridors, as if rolling from the street, wooden surfaces, sand textures, gliding lights like moonlight and mountain asceticism form and complement the spirit of the place, not violating, but emphasizing it.
Soleil Blanc is located on the western coast of Africa famous for its French architecture and natural habitat. Hence the creation of the first gourmet restaurant, combining French chic
with the unique African identity. Contemporary furniture, chandeliers and graceful minutiae remind us of modern European interiors, while stone textures, African-inspired sculptures and vegetation reflect the restaurant’s occurrence . A story of elegance and simplicity.
The shopping center is located in the city center of Vladikavkaz, Southern Russia. The designer’s main idea was to create an intelligent laconic space that does not distract from the product, but on the contrary complements its significance.
The center of the mall above the escalators is decorated with an installation of glowing letters, the main ones of which are collected in the name. A waterfall in the lobby, which is unobtrusively inscribed in the environment of the halls and creates an atmosphere of relaxation, which is so necessary after long shopping sessions. In addition, in the lobby you will find an exhibition of photographs, relative advertisements or changing expositions similar to the shopping mall’s theme, which in all justifies the name GALLERY.
The Dakar Terrace Lounge Bar was created in a contemporary ethno style. Since this objective was originally intended for the pastime of visitors form abroad, we wanted to emphasize the African style to attract attention.
Sculptures by local artists, pillow prints and stone on the bar are all Senegalese treasures.
Homemade chandeliers by local craftsmen also complete the genuine look.
Therefore, this bar has become a small ethno museum for guests.
This is a story about a mirage. An interior that that reflects the desert’s history, only this time with an oasis, lots of air and water. The story begins with the hall, where a bright blue glass carrè greets the guests, a color that will still be found in the interior.
The entrance helps you get acquainted with the narrative that the interior is trying to express. After passing through the deserted hall, you find yourself inside in the center of an oasis, light furniture, a lot of greenery, glass lamps that add air to the interior. On the right side there is a bar with a reflective metal texture, which reflects, or rather, combines different zones of complex space.
This interior is crowned with a bright blue planting, which is like the long-awaited blue sea after a sultry desert.
The name mirage supports the theme of cinema, where we plunge into the world of illusions and dreams.
The complexity of the project lays in the task at hand to combine quite contradictory stylistic directions, such as glamorous sophistication and environmental friendliness. But thanks to this contrast of styles, a unique atmosphere was created that makes relaxation possible, thanks to the natural textures of wood, stone, terrazzo, but also the feeling of beauty, style and elegance. A must have atmosphere in a beauty parlor.
Shades of terracotta pink in the lobby also emphasizes the theme of femininity.
The name illu derives from the word illusion. Illusion as in « something seeming » like a dream or an excuse to think out for yourself. Close to the theme of cinematography, the bar is situated at the centre of Pathe cinema complex.
The interior itself is not burdened with unnecessary meaning, it allows the guest to play a role of the main character. The style is conducive to a cocktail lounge pastime.
The center of the terrace is embraced with mirror ball containing infographics that reflects everything happening around it.
A restaurant about craft and artisans.
A huge number of craftsmen around the world continue to engage in applied art from miniature to monumentalism for generations.
A noble and fundamental kind of activity, which has come down through time and progress to the present day, almost without changing its content – this is unique. It makes you think about the infinity of creativity and creativity that drives a person.
This project is a kind of ode to creativity.
The bright hall of the restaurant is associated with the workshops of artists or sculptors, there are also various attributes of various crafts: malberts, on which you can exhibit your work, pedestals for sculptures, brushes, tools, ceramic dishes on tables, metal. In turn, wood and clay in the interior enhance the tactile perception of space. There is a piano in the hall, filling it with music, slowing down time.
Upon entering the bar, guests are greeted by a tasting stand and solid wood wine racks. The floor is tiled in light beige terrazzo, which reflects natural light and visually makes a small room more spacious.
The relatively small area of the premises dictated its own conditions. The space was divided into two rooms where guests not only can buy alcohol production, taste it, but also relax and spend time.
In this space, we managed to place shelves, a bar, a coffee stand, display cases with cheese and other snacks for wine, while ensuring the maximum seating of guests. The cozy interior of the chain wine bar with lots of wood, natural textures and olive trees , corresponds to a pleasant pastime, even such as just purchasing the wine.
The space of the kids stories store is divided into several separate zones, each highlighted with a new color. We are greeted by a pastel blue hall, with the installation of lighting fixtures in the form of clouds and a changing display of goods. This is where the « children’s stories » begin, reflecting the name of the store. Next is the reception, which collects all the shades of different rooms in the store. The shades are very restrained and not flashy to emphasize the products themselves, clothes and furniture. The furniture and display shelves are designed in such a way that once they get here, parents and children feel at home, walking in different rooms.
