mistral wine bar

From the blog Knstrct, a wine and champagne bar in Sao Paulo called Mistral, designed by Arthur Casas.

I love this project.  It is a great example of what I consider to be contemporary lighting design:  Not a damn downlight or track fixture in sight!  Just the beautiful luminous product wall and some cove lighting slipping down between the ceiling and the upper wall.  Very sleek.

Also impressive is the elegant interactive table.  I wonder if there is some sort of RFID tagging system in place for each bottle?  Or is it just a predetermined infographic?
