"Cozana Prime" stands as a project of sophistication and innovation in the heart of the historic center of Oaxaca, Mexico. This avant-garde nightclub not only respects the classical architecture of its location, with columns, courtyards, and moldings, but also incorporates innovative architectural design that blends authenticity and avant-garde, thus creating a unique space that integrates harmoniously with the pre-existing structure.


Upon entering the space, we immerse ourselves in a unique experience from the entrance, an illuminated tunnel with frames and lattice that anticipates the richness of sensations that await. This corridor leads us to the central courtyard, highlighted by a three-level stage and a suspended hoop, prioritizing the area where artists perform live, even hosting a piano. On one side, a 12-meter-long bar, with an aesthetic that reflects the modernity and essence of "Cozana Prime," reveals itself as an essential element in the evolution of the venue.


The lighting plays a crucial role on the site, not only decoratively but also in creating atmospheres and enhancing the user experience. Dimmable and DMX technology is used to change and synchronize the lighting with the music, evoking different moods throughout the visit.


The furniture, from metal-framed chairs and tables to lounge areas, adapts to the needs of the space, allowing optimal appreciation of events and music that seamlessly integrates with the surrounding architecture. Hallways and meeting areas are equipped with versatile furniture for musical, social, and cultural events.


The choice of materials for this project is a narrative in its own right. The rescued and restored quarry from the central courtyard, the original polished concrete for floors, and the incorporation of new materials such as glass, mirrors, and stainless steel contribute to the preservation and adaptation of spaces, while enhancing the richness of experiences at "Cozana Prime."


In summary, "Cozana Prime" transcends the conventional notion of a nightclub; it is a futuristic experience that transports visitors to a universe of avant-garde and style, where the classical architecture of the location prevails in a harmonious fusion of past and future, redefining modern nightlife in an unforgettable way.
