About Home Bar and Coffee Spinning Ambient Rotating Multifunctional Furniture
Home Bar and Coffee Spinning Ambient is a rotating multifunctional furniture unit for a home interior. The design places two settings within one space. One side is a reading and coffee area. The other side is a bar for tasting liquor and wine. A rotating platform turns the unit 180 degrees to change from one setting to the other. Rotation and lighting scenes are controlled from a smartphone, a tablet or a wall panel. The unit is built from wood, metal, stone and glass, using precision machining and traditional craft methods.
Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- The design is a complex composition of one space hosting two variable scenarios. At a command it rotates 180 degrees from a pleasant reading or coffee drinking setting to a delightful liquor and bar tasting ambient. Each ambient was designed independently in accordance with its functionality to improve the user experience. The final design futures automatization control and illumination technology to manage mood of the space; Rotating platform to switch from one to the other scenario; and traditional wood and metal working to generate human experience furniture.

- Production Technology
- Rotating home bar and coffee station production included manufacture on two countries and 10 companies. This project required from precision cnc manufacture to traditional metal and woodworking. We organized woodwork, metalwork, stonework, electricity, glasswork, lighting, stainless steel, automatization, 3d digital modeling and a carousel production.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was to find the rotating platform to work with and design the two ambiens always considering keeping the weight down, user safety and holding objects in place. I did some research on boats and trains furniture.
- Project Duration
- the project started on December 2020 and finished on november 2021
- Operation Flow
- Rotating home bar and coffee station can be operated for rotation and lighting scenarios from a smart phone or tablet through an automatization app. Also, can be control through control panel on the wall.
- Research
- To design this rotating multifunctional furniture, I had to understand the client’s idea and how it became to be. Turns out the client is a technology and movie enthusiast whose dream was to have a rotating ambient, like in the movies. The biggest challenge was to find the rotational system. During the research stage I remember the rotating platforms at car dealers, so it became easier to find the rotating platform. Once installed the platform, we began designing the two ambiens.
- Inspiration
- While designing the rotating bar and coffee stations our main inspiration was to produce a system capable to enhance the clients experience of tasting exquisite liquor, wines, and coffee. The design captures the client interest on technological possibilities, unique designed objects, and delight guests.
