A little over a year ago, I first got to the construction site of the new section @ depo.moscow
- the first street of bars in Moscow - blablabar.msk. We were lucky to participate in the development of two of the thirteen bars, today I will tell you about one of them.
From the first minute of being in BlaBlaBar, the feeling of the incredible energy of the place does not leave: huge vaulted ceilings, brick walls of the early 20th century, figured forging combined with neon, megawatt sound and the smell of burnt sugar create a kaleidoscope of sensations that draws you into the atmosphere of an endless holiday. Right in the center of this celebration is the assemblage point - the embassy of the eternal carnival - the RIO bar.
From the beginning of the development of the concept of the place, we understood that there would be tough competition here, and in order to stand out, we need to try. A strict guide limiting the possibilities of decor and styling did not allow to unfold in full, and the concept with samba dancers, which was born in the first minutes, unfortunately, did not live up to implementation. But the counter, decorated with a catchy contrasting pattern, still withstands the dances of the most furious visitors.
The bright carnival colors and brutal typographic motifs of the Rio favelas fit perfectly into the eclectic concept of the establishment and create a recognizable image. The signboard, bar menu, and bartender uniforms continue this theme.
The project was made by:
