Bakes Pasteur
Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam • Dessert / Bakery
This place provides a unique experience by having a special movement mechanism in the outdoor space that works similarly to an escalator+elevator, moving people through various functional areas. The movement through space, resembling the motion of a 'Sotdae' (a traditional Korean pole) with a lotus-shaped head that spins with the wind as seen in short video clips, alongside decorative elements, makes for an interesting example of spatial and branding elements combined. Without a general understanding of Ho Chi Minh City, however, this space might not be fully comprehensible. The narrative starts with an overview and proceeds to detail the space's features, including a confusing yet intriguing pathway leading to a café, diverse menu selections, and small but significant design choices that leverage the environment effectively, particularly for a summer country like Vietnam. #shadowlounge is located at 244 Pasteur, Phường 6, Quận 3, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh 700000, Vietnam. The business operates from 09:00 to 21:30, extending to 23:30 on Fridays and Saturdays, with motorcycle parking available.
