In brief

My role
Founding team.
Decisions
The room followed one direction: mid-century modern, with a richer palette of colour and material. Furniture and lighting were chosen so guests sit comfortably and move easily, and the sound followed the same line.

Context

Interior documentation from the Pistol project archive: the bar counter, lounge, seating and lighting. My contribution to the venue was as part of the founding team, across brand, marketing and spatial decisions. This series records the setting; it does not attribute the photography or sole interior authorship to me.

Where this transfers

Where people sit and how long they stay are decisions, not results. The same reading applies to a shop floor, a lobby, a waiting room or a page.
