When will we all be sitting in beautiful bars, sipping a coffee out of a nice mug or a cocktail out of a professional mixer and on a suede-covered high chair? Soon, is the optimistic answer, everybody holds on to! Until then, we collected the most stylish bars that were honored with an iF DESIGN AWARD 2020. This is Part two of our Hospitality design specials, after part one on Hotels and Spas.
Among the great bar interiors are gems like the Pastrami Club, Pluto Bar, Bringing in the Wine, On the Bar, Thape Meeting Room or the Mad Men-like Xin Ming Yuen Bar!
For more bar designs from other years and more inspiration in hospitality design in general, please check out our Hospitality Collection.
There are, indeed, so many vintage styled bars all over the world. And many modern travellers have visited such a bar at least once in their lives. Scrolling through all bar designs that were honored with the iF DESIGN AWARD 2020, the eye quickly catches this gem: The Theatre Club, designed by Jun Qian of Trio Studio in Nanjing, China. It does not have the same mondane features as the other awarded projects - obviously. It makes it even more fun, given the fact that this bar is held in an all-American style, yet located in China. The designers included and mixed all sorts of trendy, retro, classic
objects to decorate the interior in this vintage style. The owner is obsessed with American
vintage culture and wanted this bar to be a gathering space for the
growing number of fans of vintage Americana. This, though often seen, is a bold bar interior, especially in the given context!
