Artifact is a speakeasy bar located inside BaseHall, a food hall in Central, Hong Kong. Guests enter through a secret passage with circular windows that resemble industrial pipes. An acoustic chamber lined with tiles shaped like small speakers blocks noise from the food hall outside. The main bar is defined by rib-like arches inspired by underground cisterns. The arches were cast in fiberglass sections using a three-dimensional mould, assembled on site and hand-painted with soft plaster paint. A mirrored ceiling reflects the ribs and makes the low space appear taller.

The two-layered honeycomb panels surrounding the elevator create a flower-like pattern when one of the honeycombs is rotated 90 degrees. This conveys the message that technology will connect to create a happier world.
