India’s youth entertainment channel Channel [v] has opened its second [v] Spot Café + Bar in Gurgaon, Haryana, India.

The design of the new outlet has been conceived by Idea Spice. It spans 6800 square feet and is characterised by bold-styled interiors and rejuvenating themes. The entryway of the facility comprises a logo installation of the Channel. The installation, designed by Nida Mahmood, glows with a local flavour.

Interactive Ipad menus, video walls and touch screen gaming TVs serve as some of the predominant features of the building. These, coupled with installation of other technologically advanced measures, help evoke a casual and youthful undertone in the facility. In addition, the facility can be be customised to a café setting during the day and can be retransformed to a bar during night.
