Steeped in the spirit of the city, a space that creates a dialogue with the surrounding architecture through a geometric language laying the foundation of a spectacular cityscape. Like a house of light suspended in the sky, Uncle Ming’s guides people towards its trove of fine whiskies, taking guests on a journey of discovery as they unbox the treasures within.
Formed by simple, rectilinear shapes and realised through soulful materials, the den unfolds as an enigmatic cubic volume. Light is refracted by rippled glass, detailing the walls with shadows and slow, orderly movements that exalt into a quiet allure. Minimal yet sumptuous, the spatial experience encapsulates the essence of the city’s polarity.
The amber glow fills the timber and rippled glass shelves to illuminate the treasures.
A place steeped in the spirit of the city, where light and structure converse.
Craftsmanship is celebrated through raw, tactile executions of the brand identity, and a logotype that is a typographical expression of joinery – a hallway between an architectural drawing and a mysterious signature. Above the dusky skyline, amidst a luscious bouquet of oak and smoke, spirited conversations and aromatic encounters await.
The art of whisky making is celebrated through wooden detail and leather surfaces – materials that age and develop over time, just like whiskies.
