Book New Bar and Club Design

Download or read book New Bar and Club Design written by Bethan Ryder and published by Laurence King Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Following the highly successful Bar and Club Design (2002), New Bar and Club Design examines current international trends, showcasing 47 bars and clubs completed since 2001." "The 1990s restaurant boom led to an increase in both the volume and diversity of restaurants, and this in turn heralded an increasingly sophisticated bar market. There has been a resurgence of cocktail culture and an explosion of the 'style bar' - professionally designed venues that serve high-quality drinks. As this book demonstrates, such bars continue to open in cities from New York to Moscow, Beirut to Kuala Lumpur. There is also a trend in lower-budget designer bars that are as visually interesting as the big budget productions, such as Andy Wahloo in Paris and Opal in London." "Likewise, club culture continues to thrive. Many nightclubs are cosier than the 'superclubs' so popular during the late 1980s and '90s, and recent years have seen the emergence of the 'boutique club' - small, exclusive nightclubs where the focus has returned to the music, the sound system and the dancing. Other alternatives include late-night lounge bars with DJs that cater to the 'grown-up clubber', offering comfort and luxury rather than an empty shell in which to dance. Some 'superclubs' are still being built and these offer the very best in technology and audiovisual entertainment, usually laid out over several different areas. This book explores the design Zeitgeist of bar and club culture worldwide." "Following a brief introduction tracing the latest international trends, four themed chapters on bars, restaurant bars, hotel bars and clubs showcase the most interesting and unusual venues from around the world. New Bar and Club Design is a must for anyone with an interest in interior design, bar or club culture."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book No Sleep written by DJ Stretch Armstrong and published by powerHouse Books. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No Sleepis a visual history of the halcyon days of New York City club life as told through flyer art. Spanning the late 80s through the late 90s, when nightlife buzz travelled via flyers and word of mouth,No Sleepfeatures a collection of artwork from the personal archives of NYC DJs, promoters, club kids, nightlife impresarios, and the artists themselves. Club flyers, by design, were ephemeral objects distributed on street corners, outside of nightclubs and concert halls, in barbershops and retail shops, and were not intended to be preserved for posterity. Through the 90s, they became both increasingly prevalent and more sophisticated as printing technology evolved. Overnight, however, with the advent of the internet, theflyer essentially disappeared, despite it being common at one time for promoters to print thousands of flyers for any given event. Recently, these flyers have become sought-after collector's items.
