For our latest lookbook, we've chosen eight nightclubs that utilise clever construction methods and aesthetic solutions to execute elevated interiors with grand fittings and lavish fixtures.
The nightclub interiors, which range from an underground bunker in Beirut to a PVC inflatable in Geneva, spotlight ambitious designs that prioritise audiovisual quality and user experience through contemporary takes on accessibility and performance.
This is the latest in our lookbooks series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen's archive. For more inspiration, see previous lookbooks featuring gallery-like living rooms with sculptural furniture pieces and neutral-hued homes with herringbone flooring.
Located at the Potato Head resort in Seminyak, Bali, this sleek interior with teak veneer panelling was arranged around a 208-square-metre sprung dance floor.
Architecture studio OMA implemented a floating DJ booth and speakers with thick concrete padding engineered to avoid rattling.
B018, Lebanon, by Bernard Khoury
Beirut's underground bunker nightclub B018 was given a complete overhaul in 2019, with architect Bernard Khoury replacing original wooden furniture with gothic stone booths and podiums.
Referencing religious architecture and abattoirs, Khoury added a macabre row of skeletal metal rods hanging from the centre of the nightclub as lighting fixtures. Walls, floors, ceilings and furniture are all finished in stone.
Supernova, USA, by Mutuus Studio
Set within a timber warehouse building, this inclusive art and entertainment space is arranged around a giant disco ball that contains the DJ booth.
The hemispherical booth sits in the centre of a nine-metre-long stage and is accompanied by suspended audiovisual equipment and flashy diamond-patterned lighting arrangements.

Public Records, USA, by Shane David
Musician Shane David turned a historic Brooklyn building into a "music driven social space" called the Sound Room. The interiors are dark and moody with perforated plywood panels cladding the walls for strong acoustics.
Other sound engineering details include wooden walls that were cut on a CNC router, and a contoured ceiling meant to diffuse sound.

2 Weeks, Lebanon, by Rabih Geha Architects
Layers of perforated webbed black steel divide up the industrial interiors of this downtown Beirut nightclub, separating the main bar, DJ booth and seating area.
Clubbers must walk around the outside of 2 Weeks' container-like walls, informed by the shipping containers of its New Waterfront Area location, to enter via a gap in the steel partition.
Shelter, Switzerland, by Bureau A
Commissioned by the Federation of Swiss Architects, this intimate inflatable nightclub is made out of black PVC membrane that can be easily deflated and transported due to its lightweight structure.
Named Shelter, the building created by studio Bureau A contains a bar and a dance floor that contains an assortment of inflatable furniture including seating, tables and a DJ booth.
Silencio NYC, USA, by Crosby Studios
At Silencio NYC, gold accented metal panels, curvy built-in seating, rich-red velvet curtains and cinematic red lighting were designed to pay homage to the club's original location in Paris, which was designed by director David Lynch.
Mirrored walls create the illusion of extended space in the nightclub, which was also informed by Studio 54.

The Prada Double Club Miami, USA, by Carsten Höller
Belgian artist Carsten Höller designed this Miami pop-up nightclub for fashion brand Prada, with opposing identities and aesthetics dictating both internal and external spaces.
Contrary to the colourful neon aesthetic created for outside, the club's entirely monochromatic interiors fed into unique grayscale approaches to lighting and furniture that honoured the glory of its former 1920s film studio location.
