Paramount Bar by Tom Dixon (London) |
Wednesday, 29 October 2008 |
Renowned English interior designer Tom Dixon is behind Paramount,
London's hottest new venue located on top of city landmark Center Point
tower. The bar's aesthetic is a blend 60s retro and futurism,
articulated through the use of hard-edged materials like concrete and
stone to create a kind of space-ship meets super-club. The star of
course, is the spectacular view, which is only enhanced by Dixon's
clean, modern interior.
Anyone hoping to pay a visit to Paramount better get to work on their
"applications" for membership, a process which, rather frightfully,
mirrors a job application. Aspiring members must be "assesed" by a panel
including English actor Stephen Fry. We're not generally fans of such
pretense but thanks to Dixon, it looks like all of the hoopla may
actually be worth it. Start typing. - Lisa Evans
