Today I came across this uber-cool, unique bar in Madrid, Spain, which encaptures the look and feel of an old fashioned train from the bygone era. Heavily featured with leather, brass and dark-wood, it makes the perfect place to sit and drink with friends whilst taking a mental trip to a place you could never visit in ‘real life’.
But the real fun aspect of the 150-seat The Passenger – coffee bar by day, rock bar by night – is the illusion of movement. The three “windows” in the main seating area are actually video screens onto which a constant, synchronized stream of video is programmed so that it flows from window to window, creating a feeling of looking out the window of a moving train.
How nice it would be if Manchester could re-create this…
