The Double Club in London is an exercise in the fusion of different forms of entertainment and culture around a single location.

The club is only open for a total of 6 months, but allows visitors to experience the Congo through its music, food (pigs trotters, goat stew and conger eels for example), and art.

Double Club-London

To make the contrast even more striking, visitors can alternate between The Congo and more traditional/expected Western club, art and restaurant experiences.

Of course, this is to ingenious to be a truly commercial concern and instead is the result of a collaboration between Fondazione Prada and the artist Carsten Holler.
