Jimmy Karaoke Bar is located on a one-floor level of the restaurant complex Hungry Rabbit. This project was only possible with the permission of the customer, with his innovative approach to all things.
Films featuring the popular Indian actor, Mithun Chakraborty, inspired the bar’s name.
The philosophical concept of "crazy" from the mixing of the real and the unreal world became the basis of the project’s design.
The interior is dominated by wild, bright, rich red color tones. However, there is more contrast in the overall atmosphere as the ancient traditions of a faraway land weave together with modern technology.
Genuine rare and antique handcrafted items from regions of India (Jaipur, Rajasthan) are found everywhere. Throughout the space, hand carved works and natural fabric in finishing actively influence the sound insulation.
Against a background of vivid contrasts, in the center of the space, sits one of the main characters – a white Buddha with headphones. Here, he is another lover of music. In lighting, a simultaneous light/color effect provides continuously changing shades of color, immersing the Buddha in an illusory space of sound.
