Maccaroni Club

"The terrorist attack on Bali, on 12th October 2001, destroyed the original Caruso Maccaroni Club that we had designed. That first project spoke of modernity in the local tradition; the new project speaks of a comfortable and non-aggressive space -- a space which will give people the 'joie de vivre' in a country full of sad memories." Says the designer Giovanni D'Ambrosio.

"The inside of this new structure creates the atmosphere typical of a bamboo forest with points of light. The place is always lit by two lights: one is pervasive, the other is punctiform. The two lights alternate through a slow-timer-dimmer and project the customer in two different atmospheres: the first is private and punctiform, the second is characterized by a pervasive light. This is like a breath."
