Nestled at the heart of Wan Chai’s exclusive private lounge, the twin wine and cigar rooms embody a seamless transition—a harmonious duality that elevates the owner’s cherished collections into an artful experience. Designed for discerning connoisseurs, these spaces blend sophistication with sensory delight, creating an atmosphere where every detail tells a story.
Inspired by the velvety allure of aged wine, Minus Workshop has masterfully translated its silken essence into architectural form. Curved walnut shelving cradles rare vintages like treasured artifacts, while integrated climate control ensures perfect preservation behind the scenes. The cigar lounge, wrapped in rich leather and dark bronze, features precision-crafted humidors with silent ventilation—each element a tribute to tobacco’s timeless ritual.
Beyond functionality, the rooms become a seductive backdrop for social exchange. Ambient lighting casts a warm, golden glow across textured stone surfaces, evoking the deep hues of Cabernet and Maduro. Tactile details—from the weight of a crystal decanter to the smooth rotation of a cigar display—invite touch and interaction.
This is a space designed to spark curiosity and conversation. A central tasting table of fossilized oak serves as both stage and gathering point, while recessed seating nooks offer intimate moments of reflection. The interplay of display, storage, and usage flows effortlessly, ensuring the rooms are not just practical but magnetic—a focal point that lingers in memory long after the last sip is savored or the final ash is brushed away.
