A Celestial Encounter — Drifting into a Dreamscape Beneath a Starlit Sky
“If our language were whisky,
there would be no need for words—
I would silently pass you the glass,
and you would quietly savor it.
So simple, so intimate, so precise.”
— Haruki Murakami
Bar 18, themed “A Celestial Encounter,” unfolds like a long-orchestrated rendezvous with the cosmos, where stars whisper softly, and light and shadow weave a dreamscape—every detail is meticulously crafted to blur the boundary between reality and reverie.
A dark stainless steel ceiling descends like an ink-black night sky, where ripple-textured glass spheres hover delicately, like dew crystallized in mist. When the 360° rotating spotlights ignite, firefly-like glimmers trace fluid trajectories across the walls, animating the space with motion and mystery.
In a space where deep blue entwines with dusky silver, the bartender conjures galaxies with every motion of the fingertips. The “Stellar Sands Counter” quietly awakens—a constellation of star lights shimmering overhead, casting soft halos through the air. Interwoven silver and blue light refract through glassware, unfolding into a dreamy kaleidoscope of shifting hues. Bathed in a delicate haze of light and shadow, guests settle into lustrous stools, amber spirits swirling gently in hand. Aromas and colors intertwine in unhurried rhythm, blossoming into a poetry beyond words.
The narrative of “Celestial Encounter” is not a mere replication of the cosmos, but a romantic ritual that awakens the senses—each inch of the space invites guests to embrace the vast universe with tender intimacy.
