Red beams
The room's red arches
Bold red-painted beams curve through the room and rise behind the performers — Elixir's most recognizable mark, with the red brick wall.
Every image of the room is shot at night: a dark ceiling with white LED panels, teal LED strips, purple and red washes sweeping the crowd, and green laser bursts in one video. This is a night room, and it stays open until 04:00.
The bar top is dark stone with green rubber mats and a warm orange LED strip along one station edge. Premium spirits sit front and center — a Japanese whisky bottle — and cocktails carry elaborate garnishes of roses, cherries, star anise and cinnamon. The bartender pours a blue cocktail down a tall stacked-glass tower amid flying sparks.
A young local and international crowd dances, hands in the air, filming on phones and celebrating birthdays under gold and silver balloons. Costumed performers in camo, black and feathered outfits appear again and again, and shisha and darts are two of the night's pastimes here.
