CAR-O-BAR By Imagine Studio
Nestled along the Indore Bypass, CAROBAR offers a serene escape, blending the elegance of a luxury resto-bar with the calm of a beachside retreat. Designed with a contemporary yet tropical flair, the space harmonizes modern minimalism with rustic materials, creating an atmosphere of sophistication and comfort.
The façade is a statement of minimalism, featuring an expansive inverted curved canopy and a striking spiral staircase. Sleek arches frame the glass façade, adding a touch of elegance to the bold design. Inside, a natural color palette and symmetrical patterns create a balanced aesthetic, while minimalistic arches and molding details add a timeless charm.
The interior is enriched with earthy tones, lime wash plaster finishes, and bamboo elements, capturing the essence of a coastal paradise. The outdoor seating, adorned with thatch canopies and pristine white gravel, further enhances this tropical vibe. A standout feature is the central bar, crowned by a dynamic canopy made from DuPont Paper, creating a light, wind-responsive structure that mimics the gentle movement of the sea breeze.
With its blend of contemporary design and tropical aesthetics, CAROBAR invites guests to unwind in a luxurious yet laid-back environment, making it a must-visit destination in Indore.

About the firm - Imagine Design Studio
Principal Architect, Ar.Ankit Mittal
Ar. Ankit Mittal shares insights on the project 'CAR-O-BAR,' stating, "The material choices create a coastal retreat that connects with nature. Lime wash plaster offers warm, earthy tones and breathability, enhancing the inviting atmosphere." Bamboo elements further contribute to the design, adding sustainability and elegance while providing lightweight strength for the ceiling and canopies, ideal for a relaxed ambiance.
The main challenge was addressed by Ar.Ankit in integrating the inverted curved canopy and spiral staircase, which required precise engineering. Collaboration with structural engineers led to a striking roof design that captivates. The staircase balances artistry and functionality, utilizing M.S. fabrication for a sleek yet sturdy finish. Ultimately, CAR-O-BAR stands as a coastal haven, inviting guests to unwind and enjoy the experience.
