Adour Interactive Bar - designed by Potion

For the St. Regis, an establishment world-renowned for personal service, Potion created a custom interactive bar and tasting table to expand the reach of the Master Sommelier in their newest restaurant.

 

Working closely with the Rockwell Group and The Map Office to design the overall experience at Adour, Potion’s interactives, constructed from gold and bronze with a goat skin surface, are as far from a traditional touch screen as one can get. Potion’s large-scale interactive projections seamlessly blend with the environment, allowing patrons to browse Adour's complete wine list by wine type, country, and varietal.

 

Upon selecting a wine, a rosette appears that contains detailed information about the wine’s origin. Sommeliers and patrons alike may share or send their rosettes to other guests at the bar. At the touch-sensitive Private Tasting Table, Potion’s software allows the maitre d’ to create a unique group experience for guests, “setting the table” with personalized wine selection projections. To keep each patron’s experience personal and fresh, Potion created a custom content management system for Adour, allowing the wine director to update the interactive bar on a daily basis or for a special occasion.
