Parolio´s
latest project: The Passenger, is a coffee shop by day and rock bar by night.
Serving Madrid´s hipster community in the trendy Malasaña / Triball
neighborhood.
The new
space occupies a long and narrow architectural structure which inspired Parolio
to create the concept of “A train
constantly on the move, right in the center of the city”.
The main
area is designed to look and feel like a train cabin. To create the illusion of
movement, three huge solid screens play the role of windows. They are
constantly projected with synchronized and programmed videos that flow, from
one screen to the next, just like in real life. The images have been recorded
from train windows all over the world, presenting urban and nature landscapes
that transport the clients into the fantastic experience of travel and leisure,
pulling them away from the reality of the city around them.
The whole
interior has been covered with great work on dark wood, brown leather with
brass finishes. On the main hall photos of some of the greatest stars of
classic rock, inside trains and train stations,
welcome the clients.
The Bar
cabin completes the space with an 8 meter bar that serves some of Madrid´s best
coffee by day prepared exclusively by “Toma Café” and really delicious bite
food. By night great cocktails, craft brewery beer, gin and whisky fuel the
train accompanied by a sound track of classic rock.
