Categories: Design and Architecture

A few years ago, a former bank vault in Chicago was converted into a club-restaurant. Since the building was built in the 20s of the last century, the interior of the institution beat the existing historical and modern styles. The walls of the club-restaurant consist of more than 6,000 bank cells, and to get into the institution, you need to go through an armored door and bars. Dress code - club style or cocktail wear, instead of deposits and loans - food and drinks.
