Cheval lounge bar is located in the heart of Thessalonikiโs center. Thisย two story bar cafe experienceย is an ideal shopping break for those who stroll around the cityโs market. Near the entrance, a horse-headed human figure welcomes you to the main bar made from chevron shaped concrete blocks.ย Rusted walls,ย reed panels, leather seats, hanging plants and wood are combined with a parametric 3d shaped pattern made of folded metal blocks on the top. This contrast of rough and sharp materiality creates a contemporary urban bar, which serves fine cocktails and stylized food.
Chevalย is a project about what we call โnomad way of livingโ. The horse-headed man symbolizes the new โnomadsโ who love to travel mentally and physically. A collage of horsemen pictures, souvenirs stick on the walls, a fireplace full of books and stands made of suitcases are details which remind you what Rolf Potts said โIf in doubt, just walk until your day becomes interestingโ.
