The design for the Aurora bar, the rooftop bar above Hotel Andaz am Belvedere, was named after the northern lights. The use of natural materials, such as various types of wood, and the warm ambience all reflect Nordic design. Details play an important part in every furniture piece, quality is evident in the different treatments of wood, integrated wardrobe and hidden technical features.
The design, which features a soft colour palate of natural shades, frames a beautiful view over Vienna. Therefore, the hight of the furniture and design elements are thought out in a way so every guest has a beautiful view from any seating area outside. The bar resembles stacked wood outside a cabin and, with the seagull like lamps, it brings in a metaphorical breeze from the sea. The elegant modern ambience is complemented by the warmth the two fire places bring, one inside, one on the terrace. A fireplace must not be missed in any Scandinavian house, bringing warmth into dark winter nights. Through the designed layout of the sitting areas on the large terrace, the guests can enjoy the beautiful view over the city all year long. The same love for raw natural materials as in the bar overflows into the terrace and creates a warm cosy welcoming atmosphere.
