Studio Paolo Ferrari designs Peridot bar with 20,000 tiny lights in Hong Kong's The Henderson
Peridot, a lime-green cocktail bar, has been finalized by Studio Paolo Ferrari on the 38th floor of The Henderson building in Hong Kong. The design studio employs a "timeless futurism" concept, showcasing a cocoon-like space adorned with over 20,000 small lights housed in frosted acrylic tubes. Guests can enjoy plant-based cocktails while seated on mohair-upholstered furniture, all while taking in skyline views. A green marble service counter flows seamlessly across the walls and floor. A cozy lounge area, accessible through a curved corridor, can be reserved for private gatherings. The Henderson, designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, was completed in 2024 on a $3 billion site. Paolo Ferrari remarked that the venue captures the essence of Hong Kong's vibrancy and sophistication. Photography by Virgile Simon Bertrand.
