Client: Royal Caribbean International Project: Oasis of the Seas Comedy Live Location: East and West Caribbean Space: Oasis of the Seas Comedy Live
DESIGN
The Comedy Live experience begins outside the space in the Entertainment Place neighborhood of Oasis of the Seas.The façade invokes a moving subway, and through an edgy uplit mesh portal guests are drawn into a dynamic space with ultra modern interpretation of a subway car.A dramatic backlit New York subway map illuminates the ceiling while banquettes are a sleek interpretation of subway seating.Around the room and on the backdrop of the stage are lettered tiles that spell out secret messages.The sleek industrial look is not far behind with hammered, riveted metal columns.All these design elements come together like a kaleidoscope creating a high energy space bursting with character.
CONTEXT
The club’s location below Central Park supports the edgy, gritty ambience of a New York comedy club.
INSPIRATION
The underground theme of this space was inspired by the City Hall-Brooklyn Bridge Station, once the crowning jewel of the New York City Subway System.
