Control Club
Bucharest, Romania
Finalist, 2026 A+Awards, Hospitality - Bars & Wineries
Club Control is located on the premises of the former "Berlin" restaurant, an establishment from the 60's founded with the intention to promote friendship between Democratic Germany and Socialist Romania hence the Meisen blue ceramics depicting German towns.
Because Control is about music and music is particularly about sound, the design mostly consists in an obsessive care so that each element follows an acoustic requirement before any "aesthetic" one.
The "small room" has been completely reconfigured around having the DJ booth in the middle so that people naturally gather informally around it. The bar is behind the DJ booth so everyone sitting at the bar is backstage, so to say. All the original neo-classical decorations have been kept, restored and lighten while wood has been applied to all other surfaces.
The solid wood battens have a specially designed semi-round profile inspired from the grooves of the historical columns and so thought out so that the curvature can best withstand any impact of generations of partygoers while acting as sound reflection/ absorbing wall treatment.
The seat of the custom designed chairs and the table tops have perforations inspired from period speakers.
The bar shelves form a system of panels at various angles and frequencies like a sound studio wall so as to reflect the sound in the best possible way, being a bottles display comes in secondary. The sound system is especially tailored so as to result in constant sound quality in any point of the venue through the wide dispersion angle horns.
