Kokaistudios’design reimagines Bar Rouge as a fashion show, where guestscriss-cross between the experience of front- and backstage of the red carpet. All the decorative elements at Bar Rouge draw strong inspiration from the spirit of the catwalk, such as the flashbulb LED wall at the entrance, the series of bespoke sparkling director chairs, and the iconic Fortuny lamps hung as lighting umbrellas above the central red bar.

As Bar Rouge continues to draw the highest flight of international DJs and artists as the club of choice in Asia, Kokaistudios expanded the DJ station and provided it with a more prominent location over the main room. It serves as the main stage of the conceptual catwalk, nestled between two bespokesuper-VIP lounges, designed for the champagne brand Dom Pérignon. The studio also created a special feature wall behind the DJ booth, in which a series of light reflectors interact with the music to create a unique vibe and a powerful rhythm, adding to the dynamic dancing scene of the club.
