Materials, patinas, decorative coatings, embossed coatings, aged waxed plaster

Here are the ideas for this "reception area" of the historic MACÁN cellar. Two themes are grouped together: The first theme, created by me, represents an imitation of black rock to give the illusion of a dug cellar. Breaking patterns were dug and scraped into the thickness of a plasterboard. Successive sand plasters were applied sparsely between the breaches. A metallic anthracite black glaze covers the whole, it has been patinated with grey/matt white highlights. The second theme, directed by Gilles Chabrier, is made of UV bonded glass panels. They were engraved on the facade by sandblasting following an embossed drawing in Cordoue leather. (I am not the originator of this drawing). The choice of lighting at the bottom in the glass and at the top in front of the panels has been considered to highlight all the effects of hand engraving. It should be noted that this reception area welcomes guests for tasting and allows for transitions between the historic cellar and the barrel cellar.
