The Design

About Luxe Interior de Bar Lounge

Luxe é un bar lounge situado en Shinjuku Kabukicho, Xapón. O interior está deseñado como un espazo tranquilo, separado do bulicioso distrito de lecer do exterior. As paredes da planta principal presentan obxectos que combinan estruturas de aceiro con iluminación indirecta. A planta inferior está revestida con obras de arte e luces de neon. Os separadores con flores coloridas dividen as zonas de asentos e engaden cor ao espazo. Empréganse placas de metal traballado a martelo tanto para as mesas coma para o teito da sala VIP. Espellos negros percorren os corredores e algunhas paredes. A iluminación mantense tenue para non incomodar aos hóspedes.

Unique Properties: A lounge bar in Shinjuku Kabukicho, the largest entertainment district in Japan.
Since many people from overseas visit Shinjuku, we wanted to create a borderless space where foreigners can also enjoy themselves with women in Japan. We have created a space where customers can feel extraordinary in a calm space spread out in a multi-tenant building.
Dimensions & Packaging: Plated metal plates with beaten and uneven surfaces will be used for the table and VIP Room ceilings.
The BAR ceiling will be covered with metal tin ceiling board. The walls of the main floor are decorated with objects combining steel frameworks with indirect lighting
Black mirrors are used for the aisles and some walls.
Tags: Sauna,Bath,Shower
Production Technology: The walls of the main floor are decorated with objects combining steel frameworks with indirect lighting to create an icon of the overall space. The subfloor is a complete change, expressing lewdness with a continuous arrangement of paintings combining neon lights with artwork. The partitions that hide the line of sight are decorated with colorful flowers, setting up color in an otherwise inorganic space.The VIP room has a beaten metal plate to reflect the shimmering light.
Design Challenge: In designing this space based on the concept of "serenity," a lighting and design plan was created to maintain an appropriate level of illumination so that multiple guests would not be distracted by each other. Within the low-lit space, materials were divided into zones to maximize the effect of each, and the design was intended to be inspirational in its effect. In the end, the lighting plan to achieve these conditions was the most difficult, but we were able to achieve a wonderful balance in the end.
Inspiration: Since the Lounge BAR is located in the center of Shinjuku Kabukicho, the largest entertainment district in Japan, we aimed to create a quiet space isolated from the hustle and bustle of the crowded area to provide relaxation for people who are tired on a daily basis.
By contrasting the hustle and bustle of the outside with the quietness, we aimed to create a space as a high-end lounge, and started the design from how to express the contrast between "hustle and bustle" and "quietness" in the materials.
Project Duration: October 16, 2023 to November 20, 2023 Project period.
Located in Shinjuku, Japan.
