About Equal by Tklab Barinnredning
Equal er en bar og et hybrid butikkinteriør i Taipei. Lokalet på omtrent 162 kvadratmeter kombinerer en butikk, en bar, et arrangementsområde og en hentekiosk. En hovedinngang betjener hentekiosken, mens en sideinngang leder til baren. Lys er hovedelementet, og fargen, lysstyrken og refleksjonen er tilpasset vinsmaking og kan endres ved hjelp av en intelligent lysstyring. En buet vegg samler vinstativer, et fatsakesystem, frysere og lagring. Den varme fargepaletten og den hulelignende inngangen skaper en avslappet atmosfære.

In addition, the designer can change the lighting with intelligent light controller according to current atmosphere. Even the walls will be styled in layers under the shade and shadow.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The whole area is about 1,743 square feet.
To target the female market segment, the designer focuses the drinks menu mainly on sake and cocktails. Also, considering the customer flow during peak hours and serving efficiency, the draft sake dispensing system has been adopted in the cocktail area to increase production capacity. It helps the designer to produce sake with a champagne-like texture and to replace the traditional method commonly seen in izakayas. - Tags
