Striped marble counter

Lisbon, Portugal

MAAT Infopoint and Ticket Office

A former technical space at a museum is transformed into a ticket office and small bar. The narrow room was stripped back: partitions removed and beams exposed. The Portuguese design team then clad the walls in white tiles with a subtle chessboard pattern and pink joints, painted the ceiling blue and touched the frames in light green.

The room is interrupted by one bold object: a long counter of striped black and white marble, slightly tilted, holding a kitchen, bar, cabinets and a ticket machine. The same box reappears at the information point.
