Dominated by massive, stratified columns and overhanging volumetric forms, the design creates an immersive spatial experience that blurs the boundaries between structure and enclosure.

Melia is with the untamed pulse of the wild. The cocktail bar exudes an aura of mystery and allure, bathed in dim, atmospheric lighting that allows shadows to play across every surface while light lingers in corners, creating an ever-shifting dance of form and space.
