The essence of the spatial solution of Jetlag Bar is the "cutting" of the space into "time" zones. Each zone begins and ends with a curve defining a part of the space. By shaping the curves, individual parts of the bar are created - the bar itself, shelves for wine and tea, lights, benches. The curvature of the actual time zones is abstracted into the bar's form. The space formed by the curves is intentionally vague, "blurred." Just like time when a person travels far enough, long enough, and often enough.
The basic material is shiny metal - stainless steel. Shiny, subtle, "hinted" steel curves reflect the imaginary lines delineating the time zones. Shiny metal associates with the sleek bodies of airplanes with riveted sheets as well as contemporary winemaking stainless vessels.
The curves flow throughout the space, including the floor and carpentry elements.
In the tunnel between the two spaces, shiny metal sheet is used in a flat surface. It is somewhat the body of an airplane and somewhat a distorted mirror.
