Architectural elements based on wine bottles and barrels create a contemporary vaulted ceiling in this wine shop in Valladolid, northwest Spain by Zooco Estudio.Called Vinas & Viandas, the cave-like wine shop occupies a 35-square-metre space with a shopfront that opens onto a paved street in the city centre.
Inside, wine racks line either side of the space surrounded by curving architectural elements and furniture that are designed to recall the shape of wine bottles, barrels and the vaulted ceilings of old wine cellars.
A series of timber panels cut with arches and large circular openings are installed at regular intervals across the length of the space.As well as evoking the vaulted ceilings found in "ancient underground cellars", the panels form archways and windows that divide the interior and outline the store's various zones, such as the counter, tasting table and exhibition-sale space.
