Off-dry Cocktail & Wine Bar

The long back bar with two lit bottle shelves, a bartender at work, a guitarist playing, guests at the counter — red, warm light — The back bar

Story

A room that deepens into red.

Small, dark, intimate. A long back bar stands at the front of the room, its shelves glowing amber over the counter; behind it, a red-lit back room with one long communal table, wall shelves holding bottles and frames, and a doorway glowing red at the back.

While guests drink, a film is projected on the wall. The glass holds layered cocktails and whisky pours — pink and frothy in a stem glass, pale with an orange peel, creamy white in a balloon glass — and the bar keeps guest-shift nights, when a visiting bartender takes the counter.
