About Cat Walk Bar Piano

Cat Walk adalah sebuah bar piano yang berlokasi di Kota Hsinchu, Taiwan, dengan luas 171,9 meter persegi. Bentuk lahan yang triangular serta posisi kamar kecil yang tidak dapat dipindahkan menjadi penentu utama tata letak ruang. Sebuah koridor melengkung mengitari area kamar kecil dan dihiasi dengan gambar potong laser berupa gelas anggur terbalik. Pintu depan menghadap langsung ke panggung, dengan meja bar di sisi kiri dan area tempat duduk di bagian tengah. Gorden velvet biru tebal pada dinding jendela berukuran besar berfungsi menyerap suara, sementara gorden velvet merah membingkai panggung. Kisi-kisi plafon melengkung turut menyerap suara sekaligus memisahkan area tempat duduk.
