Paradiso
Escapism
Paradiso is a tropical oasis in the concrete jungle, with a view of the moon from a plush lounge.
It is a tonic for the daily pressures of life, a place that heals the mind with exquisite aroma and tamber. Paradiso invites its clients to slow down, stay a while, relax, talk, listen or simply drink in the ambience and pass through.The layout and seating encourages bodily passivity and introspection. No pressure. No worries. Paradiso exhibits rich,soft woven colors, evokes Afrocubism, and evinces the Transcendental mindset.
Key is Paradiso’s visual use of dappled light, in the form of skylights. Natural flora and fauna remind us of that much needed vacation. Immersive, Dreamy, Meandering Paradiso is layered in taste, sight and sound.
Paradiso, visually, will place second to the sounds that infuse vibe and life directly into the location. The lounge will be sensual, olfactory and sensitive. The musical sounds starts slow, builds to quirky beats and end each night with uptempo jazz and reggie. We pause only to start it all over again, in the warm light of day. Humor and laughter will linger in this holistic experience.
