Concept and features:
Balance Bar and lounge offers a unique experience that provides individuals with both safety and security. Focusing on meeting the needs of our target audience was the most important requirement when designing this space. Throughout this space their is a variety of social issues that have addressed successfully within the design of the bar.
Balance presents a beautiful interior design palette that portrays a feel of a resort and holiday lifestyle. The application of white timber and sandstone has crafted a relaxing and luxury look to the space. Touches of pattern and colour have been used in the tiles adding excitement and atmosphere. A sense of magic is offered by the open ceiling design that has allowed for maximum natural light and air flow allowing both environmental and physical benefits.
​
Balance brings a "balance" due to the harmonious arrangement within the space. Bringing a mix of visual appeal and strong functionality.
