Lotus Lounge
Baton Rouge, LA — 2022
For the Lotus Lounge, we embraced the challenge of reinventing the tiki bar experience. Our client envisioned a modern twist on the classic tiki theme, avoiding anything tacky or cliche. We achieved this through a thoughtful blend of traditional elements and contemporary design. Enveloping guests in an immersive experience, we obscured all windows and entry points, ensuring a complete escape into the tiki world. By incorporating natural materials like bamboo, rich colors, and lush greenery, we crafted an environment that feels both familiar and refreshingly new. We enlisted a renowned tiki artist, Tiki Bosko to create the tiki sculptural elements which included more modern interpretations of totem engravings to add a sophisticated touch.
