BIENENSTEIN CONCEPTS introduced a circular shaped chamber at the entrance area and another curved lounge space at the rear to break up the elongated outline. The main vertical surfaces are separated from horizontal planes by floor and ceiling reveals, creating subtle shadow lines.
Interconnected with brass fins, the stepped ceiling at the front circular space slides into the main ceiling plane where knife-edge light coves achieve a floating effect.
A spiral floor pattern composed of marbles and oak wood at the entrance transitions into large floor slabs of honed Corinthian marble.
The main space’s walls are dressed with a stone wainscot where alternating large marble panels from Travertine varieties and Onyx are intersected by thin brass strips and emphasized by concealed up-lights.
The bespoke fixtures and fittings rendered in brass and various marbles are one of the concept’s key features.
