China Doll Club - Beijing |
Wednesday, 23 July 2008 |
Clubbers and night cats in Beijing not only shake their booties to the hottest beats at the new ChinaDoll club,
they are also surrounded by work from some of China's best contemporary
artists. Founded by award-winning Chinese actress/producer Ai Wan and
club designer Wu Ying, ChinaDoll was conceived and designed via their
studio E.P.I.C. Design where the original club first opened in Beijing
at the end of 2006.
Relocated
now to the main strip in Sanlitun, the new club is prominently located
on the top floor of the '3.3' plaza building. The good news for
party-goers is that this venue is three times bigger, comprising a
lounge, dancefloor and eight VIP rooms. With their motto The Art of
Play', the interior of ChinaDoll takes art out of the gallery and into
the club. The overall theme of the interior revolves around 'The Kiss'
with passion and sensuality taking centre stage.
The
work of six contemporary chinese artists is integrated into the
interior, custom made installations and furniture, depicting for
example sexy female forms, Chinese dolls or modern Chinese love lives.
A glossy backdrop of lightboxes adorned with abstracted fashion
photography references the brush strokes and vivid colours of chinese
water colours. When illuminated, it creates an electric atmosphere
making ChinaDoll a lolly shop for the eyes and an amusement park for
the senses. - Jeanne Tan
