Gin Bar

Gin

Gin is a bar interior of 200 square meters located in Xi'an, China. The design is inspired by the masonry, ceramic components and arch structures of Etruscan architecture. Handmade coarse ceramic brick walls are combined with textured stucco coating and granite surfaces. Stone columns are joined to the streamlined central bar counter, which supports the structure and fills the open space. Candles and ceiling spotlights provide soft lighting. Art Deco lines and symmetrical geometry recall an ancient era.

Gin Bar by Yixi Liu was featured as an innovative illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Gin Bar earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2023. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, meritocratic, just and fair design award that recognizes superior design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
