Up and Racing

In honor of the fabulous horse race and all round great style event that is the Melbourne Cup I thought I would do a post on my favourite cup marque. This beautiful bubble palace for Moet-Chandon dates back to the 2005 cup, however it still rates among the top marque designs. The theme devised by PTW Architects for Moet-Chandon was "bubble-ism" whatever that means? I am still amazed by the Lycra dome ceiling and the surreal environment it created. PTW used some other luminous elements like ghost chairs and mirrored surfaces to highlight the effect.
