About Mad Monk Barinnredning

Mad Monk er en barinnredning lokalisert i Tokyo. Designet er inspirert av Ji Gong, en munk kjent for sin kjærlighet til reising og alkohol. Blanke, svarte vegger reflekterer omgivelsene og skaper en følelse av kontinuitet. Hyllene støttes av flasker med japansk sake, og ingen metallskjøter er benyttet. Belysningsarmaturer er innfelt i hyllene, som er 18 mm tykke, slik at flaskene lyses opp nedenfra. Det svake lyset inne i flaskene belyser brennevin fra hele verden. Interiørarealet er på 117,4 kvadratmeter.

Inspiration
The designer was in charge from design to construction.
By making it a glossy black wall, it reflects the sight and gives out mysterious continuity.
There is no metal joint. Just bottles that are stuck in the shelves. Lighting fixtures are embedded in the shelves (thickness 18mm) to light from below. There are many beautiful things and fun things around us. Ingenuity is the key. The Japanese Sake bottles support the world's liquors as shelf structure.
