NOOK
The futuristic white pods in Nook, which is designed replicating first class pods in a jet. The idea of the pod was generated purely due to Asia population travels by jet. The green and white setting in the venue has floor to ceiling windows, overlooking KL Sentral area. The green in the venue is chosen as green is the softest colour to our eyes, reminding us of pandan leaves and kaffir lime. The green carpets at the pods are made out of horse hair, as it is the most durable natural fiber in the world. There are two giant paintings of Rafflesia to showcase the local infusion in the design.
