Victoria Brown Bar & Restaurant | Hitzig Militello Arquitectos

The design responds essentially to a clear picture provided by the client, an image and personal style of a specific period and aestheticism aimed to a sophisticated audience. The choice of "secret " doors clad in brick in the hallways answers to an allusion to the concept of speakeasy bar. In the front, a coffee place whose characteristics mark tendency. Without intending to replicate or reproduce a time era, the proposal seeks to build a patchwork of situations and conceptual triggers, therefore generating the intended climate. Spatially, the factory setting is typically ethereal, so there was a clear intention to divide the space in order to generate a low spatial scale. The use of "stations" is a strategy that create distinctive focus areas in the project, giving the design a different area of enjoyment, not only bar o vip spaces, but a third space : distinctive, heavy, dim. The connections between the stations and the bar mimic the concept of distilling whiskey, but function as lighting and winery. The last room assembles the living rooms which are divided by scissors screens that may eventually move to change the distribution. This achieves two objectives, maintaining the industrial image and, furthermore, generating a versatile space.
