The Malt Lounge and Bar at The Prince Akatoki London hotel.;
THE CHOICE OF MATERIAL HUES REFLECTS BOTH TEA AND WHISKY.
The space hosts an array of Japanese whiskies that are concealed during the day and effortlessly slide into position in front of the Georgian windows, to present an illuminated display of whisky bottles in the evening.
Lit with seductive minimal wall lights is a material curation of dark stone, bronze countertops and traditional prayer panels.
CRAFTED FURNITURE WITH DEEP TIMBER TONES WERE CHOSEN FOR THEIR ROBUSTNESS AND COMFORT.
Modern clean-lined furniture was used throughout.
Bespoke traditional prayer panels.
Day time layout for the tearoom.
When we rebranded from a British hotel to a Japanese hotel, the task we put to the team at B3 was monumental. The brief we gave them was to encapsulate the attention to detail as found in Japanese culture and bring that into the hotel. From day one our expectations were quite significantly exceeded. Each team member at B3, led by Mark, are not only fantastic designers but artists in the field of creating an ambience that fits the ideas we had on paper. Thank you, Mark and team!
