ZERO Cocktail Bar Turin , Italy designed by E.Zaniboni D.Bardini photo by Daniele Boccallo graphics by TrulyDesign 2010 Zero, before of a cocktail bar acc+ording to the needs of the client, was meant to be a new meeting point of Piazza Vittorio in Turin. Without being decontextualized and self cen- tered. But with a strong personali- ty. The union of two adjacent rooms on the ground floor and the consequent elimination of the dividing walls allow the restyling of the space and the obvious distinction between service areas and public spaces . The counter, the main character, is essential for the geometry and material consistency without giving up a dialogue with the new “container” that receives it. The reinterpretation of the aesthetic of industrial architecture and attention to details make of Zero an essential , clean- and elegant space that not give up being stylish.
