Central to the theme of the bar is the creation of an over scaled and highly faceted structure that boldly references the multiple facets of a black diamond; the idea is abstracted by creating a dramatic faceted labyrinth that dynamically and unpredictably envelopes the entire space. The intent was to evoke the feeling of bieng inside the heart of a diamond. The concept thus interprets the central theme of the hotel and the design brief- the Nizam of Hyderabad’s jewels. 2011.
Seating moulds into walls and then onto the ceiling. The color palette is deliberately stark. Monotones of copper and dark champagne are offset with certain facets in bronzed mirror. The sofas, single seaters and tables are angled and faceted in keeping with the aesthetic of the outer shell.
