Entry Description

The lighting design concept of this winehouse was thought as a theatre set with the enlightment of the overall architecture parts in order to highlight the main perspective.
Thus, some linear fixtures underline the geometric shape of the space with a grazing lighting on the stone walls of the mezzanine and the concrete wine sats on the ground floor.
Projectors enhance the wooden frames and the wine vats as pieces of art.
A remarkable light installation made of suspended warm light tubes guides visitors to the bar towards the laboratory where the wine was originally created.
All the lighting devices change their color according to the uses of the winehouse.
When the winery is open to visitors, the entire space is sublimated in purple, to recall the color of the wine.
A second amber scenario is also planned for technical uses.
