Shanghai, CN
Since the opening of NINJA CLUB in 2021, it has welcomed many young people passionate about hip-hop culture and most of its furnishings are outdated already. With the renovation and transformation into NINJA CLUB 2.0, a new chapter unfolds, narrating its own song of ice and fire .
The entrance facade is adorned with undulating black granite, and magma-like red light flows from the crevices of the stone. Within the irregular stack of stones, a square and smooth mine entrance is carved out, leading into the mine. The solid glass bricks, with natural bubbles from the firing process, like a millennium-old ice bridge frozen in an instant, crystal clear and stable. Several crystal pendants hang from the top, allowing the magma-like red light shining through, to create a natural contrast with the rough natural stone walls on both sides.
Open the dance floor doors to see a big ice-covered volcano hanging in the right front. The opposite of the volcanic crater is our DJ booth. And the base of the mountain extends all the way to the top of the dance floor, covering one-third of the entire dance floor space.
Surface of the volcano is covered with mirrored facets, and the red light from the volcano's mouth constantly surges with the rhythm of the music. Above the sofa area, several circular crystal pendants are arranged. Due to the unique refractive properties of crystal and mirrors, people in the dance floor experience different light and shadow reflections from different angles.
Most of the dance floor walls are wrapped in black velvet, filtering some of the sound reflections and allowing the refracted light to land smoothly without causing chaotic reflections. It is akin to the black cushion under each diamond ring, making the dazzling crystals even more striking.
