Nightcap is a modern cocktail bar located in downtown Ann Arbor, Michigan. The 2,400 sf bar is set up with multiple seating types. The tasting table sits at the front of the space with a cut out for the bar tender to serve specialty drinks. The sweeping lounge booths accommodate groups large and small. The main bar extends the length of the space and moves in and out to create bar seats that focus the view on the mixing. The two top booth is intimate with a built in table for two. The stage is set up higher to offer a different view of the space with cozy benches to sit on.
The main feature of the space is the light/shadow texture on the wall. This effect was produced with a track light in the ceiling and pointing through the perforated metal ceiling panels. Creating an effect of depth and texture just with light and a flat wall.
