Karaoke bar | Znak Design & Architecture

A future karaoke bar in Kyiv is a place where you can feel like a part of a pleasant event and even create its mood by performing on a stylized stage, surrounded by draped curtains that add theatricality to the place. 

One of the challenges was the size of the room. It is elongated and low, so it is not very suitable for a karaoke bar. Therefore, we decided to make the ceiling dark in order to create a sense of its absence. In addition, vertical lines can be traced throughout the room, which visually increase its height.

Another difficulty is the square columns, which interfered with the planning of seats and closed the participants' view. So we made them round, and added lighting and decor. To avoid the eclectic impression of the columns, we built a space around them on a round-shape game, so the sofas, lamps, and tables are also round. And we also minimized sharp corners throughout the room: most of the tables, chairs, floor lamps, and the bar are streamlined.

By the way, the bar is one of the accent elements in the interior. We made it with three layers of hidden lighting to achieve the effect of levitation in the air and create the impression that the bar is "otherworldly". To create a cozy and natural atmosphere at the bar, we added plants, and the vertical lines behind reinforce this vibe of growing from the bottom up, like a stem of grass, and a tree trunk.

Essential lighting with pink and blue colors can be flexibly changed due to RGB lights, creating your own atmosphere when renting a bar for closed parties.
