Stalk Tree-hugger Bar Concept
Architecture firm RAD+ar wanted to create a dynamic space that incorporated nature. This was accomplished by the use of attractors that produced constantly changing properties. The buildings also act as revolving shadows, allowing visitors to experience what life is like under the shadows. In addition, the movement of the trees and the wind creates a relaxing space to observe nature, making it an integral part of the architecture. © Mario Wibowo
The pasture entrance of Stalk Tree-hugger Bar is hidden and surrounded by tall plants. Visitors wait in a narrow, verdant lobby before being led through the trees to an upstairs bar and restaurant. The upstairs bar-resto covers 750 square meters and has a light metal-framed ceiling that provides shade for the open glass. The roof also acts as an anchor for the central parametric tensile. It functions as a façade and roof types inside; it also serves as a night light, enhancing the city?s entertainment.
