Electro Lounge

An exclusive VIP lounge area within the Clink Performing Arts Club, required to be a separate entity, yet convey a visual link to the existing area. The existing space comprised of a sub-floor basement with limestone block work to all wall faces. The design sought to place a striking visual emphasis upon the ceiling treatment, to ensure that the existing materials would be preserved and that a unique contrast between old and new materials would be perceived by all patrons whom frequented the room. The naming device "electro lounge" is echoed through the rooms main design feature a seven metre long expressionist lounge. This expressionist piece seeks inspiration from the form of a "jesters hat" providing a teasingly visual piece. Through the use of rich ripe ruby red hues in the form of plush soft leather upholstery, this piece takes the tradition of the chaise lounge to a new contemporary level.
