Antinoo
Commercial design
Rome, 2025
Concept
Bar Antinoo brings ancient design and history to visitors, allowing them to enjoy modern and innovative mixology in the setting of Imperial Rome
Antinoo is more than just a bar, it tells a story and spins a narrative of history-through design and bartending
Exterior
Most spaces should induce calm and safety- the bar is no such space; a bar should curate a feeling and exude a certain energy
While the color scheme stands in oppostion to the interior, the style and use of materials ties the spaces together.
Interior
The bar is a custom, fully aluminium design. The use of aluminium is both in line with the stylistic direction, as well as that it creates a mirror effect. This produces a trompe l’oeil giving the impression of increased space and a more vast selection of bottles
The bar's interior is color drenched in a dramatic red, balanced by the marble columns greys and whites- with mid tones and depth added by brushed chrome furnishing
