Coloured lighting sets the tone
This is arguably the most splendid bar I’ve ever seen. It’s situated in Romania and has a full steampunk theme throughout.
Joben Bistro is the name of the bar and has all the elements that would make any upstanding gentleman drool in lust. Leather sofas and American old West saloon chairs scatter the ground while copper pipes and taxidermy with bionic conversions adorn the walls.
Located in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, walking into the bar is like stepping into a Jules Verne novel. Befitting with the neo-Victorianism, old televisions sit on the wall for customers to use.
Surprisingly, I would think that using coloured lighting would detract from the ambience that the creators are trying to achieve, but it enhances it completely. Add to that the Top Hat light shades.
Top Hats are used at lamp shades
Taxidermy is given bionic implants
Fantastical items adorn the walls throughout
Romanian steampunk bar takes inspiration from well known novels
