SHH Architects designed the new building as three elegant interlocking volumes, each one larger than the last and variously clad in timber, glass and stone. The Nu Asia restaurant in Bahrain is a delightful example of contemporary architecture, an attempt to blend the most varied elements into an apparently seamless blend of elegance.
The first 8.5m high ‘box’ is clad in dark timber slats, allowing the light to shine through dramatically at night-time, whilst protecting against the searing daytime sun. The second 9.7m high ‘Chinese lantern’ box is clad in dark glass and features applied aluminium mullions in a geometric pattern, whilst the third and final 12.2m high box is clad in stone, in the colour of sand to blend in with its environs, in seemingly random grain patterns. Lighting throughout is custom designed by SHH for the project. Most of the furniture on the project is also designed to be site-specific by SHH. Via: stylecrave |
