Once no more than gathering spots with domestic interiors, cafes and bars have evolved into places for relaxation where people go to escape the monotony of everyday life. Seen in this light, the design of a bar's interior is crucial: it's a setting that has to stir the senses, generate a great atmosphere and help create an unforgettable night out. The 40 innovative projects featured in "Behind Bars" are proof that more and more designers rely on high-tech solutions to produce a look geared to these demands. Their interiors not only demonstrate a high level of creativity and variety but also push the limits of style theme and materials. The result is one spectacular space after another. Each cafe or bar in the book is accompanied by quality images, floor plans and a full description based on an interview with each of the designers. "Behind Bars" is an inpsiring compilation of today's trends in bar design.

We'll put you behind bars. Don't get your panties in a bunch because everything happens for a reason: Starting with the release of the title Behind Bars in November 2007, Die Gestalten Verlag is the new worldwide distribution partner for books by Frame Publishers. Amsterdam-based Frame Publishers has developed a growing book publishing business over the last several years with a focus on interior design and architecture. Their content is a fitting extension to dgv’s internationally renowned publications, which focus on cutting-edge visual culture and design.

At the upcoming Frankfurt Book Fair from October 10th to 14th dgv will be presenting Behind Bars, the first release of the collaboration with Frame Publishers, at their Stand J146 in Hall 4.1. An inspiring compilation, the book features 40 innovative venues in various design styles. Each project is presented on eight lavish pages with copious photos of the interior, interviews with the designers, floor plans and detailed project information. Frame also publishes two well-respected bi-monthly magazines Frame: The Great Indoors and Mark: Another Architecture.
