STAGE ONE Terrace Bar | WAVE GB

The STAGE ONE terrace bar, with a footprint of approximately 1160m², is located on the 4rd floor of Garry Culture Center in Wangjing District, Beijing. The design of the terrace bar continues the core concept of the "open-ended" structure from the 3rd floor bars, creating an outdoor space that is different from the indoor bars but equally dramatic. By combining dramatic elements with functional outdoor areas, it transports people into different story scenes, creating an exciting, enjoyable, and immersive terrace entertainment environment.

The terrace integrates various forms of outdoor activities into the space, emphasizing the integration with the outdoor environment, and creating distinctive functional areas. These areas include the bar counter area, recreational water area, lounge chair area, scenic sofa area, lawn camping area, KTV private rooms, etc. Different forms of furniture are selected and arranged according to each area's function, providing different scene experiences.

The bar counter area, recreational water area, and lounge chair area are interconnected to form a cohesive design, collectively creating the central activity zone of the terrace. The bar counter area is enclosed by curved walls of varying scales, creating a sense of hierarchy for the shelves and seating area. Warm-colored lightboxes, accentuated by exposed structural elements, enhance the dramatic ambiance.

The recreational water area connects the bar counter area and the lounge chair area, with a central fountain and a circular water stage. Stair-like platforms surround the stage, creating a layered effect. The shallow steps also separate the colors of the water, adding to the sense of depth. The reflection of the bar counter on the water surface creates a unique scenic view on the terrace.

The lounge chair area is enclosed by "unfinished" Roman columns and an array of arch-shaped gates. At the top, there are circular windows that allow sunlight to shine through, creating intriguing circular patterns of light on the ground during the day. At night, the changing stage lighting transforms the entire central area into a theatrical atmosphere.

The terrace is located in a commercial office district with towering buildings, showcasing the bustling urban scenery. Therefore, a scenic sofa area is designed at the edge of the terrace. This area offers a contrast to the ambiance of the bar counter area, providing a relatively quiet and private space. It serves as a sheltered oasis amidst the busy city life. Additionally, the extensive lawn area on the terrace is utilized to create an ideal spot for camping enthusiasts and nature lovers. Combined with a separate mobile bar and dining cart, it offers the opportunity to enjoy the outdoor camping experience.

The attention to detail continues the theatrical elements, incorporating theatrical lines on the walls, water steps, and columns. From various viewing angles, one can experience the compelling impact of the theatrical lines, immersing themselves in the scene and feeling the fusion of nature, art, and social interaction. It provides a fresh outdoor entertainment and leisure experience, where people can enjoy the space. As the sun sets, the show begins...
