Blue Frog by Chris Lee & Kapil Gupta

Based on this desire to have it all, the question for us is: how do you collapse a theater, restaurant, bar and club into a warehouse whilst maintaining all the performative characteristics of each individual type?

The differential extrusions of these circles encapsulated at different levels as tiered cylindrical seating booths, allow the eye level of diners and standing patrons to be distributed across staggered levels that increase in height away from the stage.

These booths seat between 4-10 people and are arranged around an open centre that can either double up as a potential 360 degree stage or accommodate standing patrons, bringing them closer to the main stage to create an intimate viewing experience.
The deep structure that was employed is of a cellular organization composed of circles of varying sizes in plan approximating a horse-shoe configuration.
