LONDON (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — Design Week has revealed some of the details for the forthcoming nightclub at the AEG's O2 Arena, dubbed Matter.
The 2,000-capacity venue is being designed with an industrial ethic, an "allusion to a temple of concrete" said club owner Cameron Leslie said.
Among the features to be included in the design are a custom-built dance floor. "Most Technical has designed the sound and lighting and is working alongside partner company Djenerate to develop the dance floor," said a spokesman from Pentagram, the design firm.
Other elements at the new club include a full-on digital video display system to provide hardware and custom-designed elements for a residency by audio-visual VJ partners Inside Us All.
The price for the project wasn't specified but is estimated to run at six figures. The club is set for a September 18th opening.
The schedule for the first two weeks:
19th – Live Launch Night – UNKLE Live, Late Of The Pier Live, Iglu & Hartley Live, Huw Stephens
20th – Club Launch Night – Carl Cox, Yousef & More TBA
