The exciting rush of endorphins, carpe diem confidence, and the possibility for spontaneous elopement that come with Las Vegas are encapsulated at a new cocktail lounge from Bruno Mars called The Pinky Ring.
Located within Vegas’s Bellagio Hotel, The Pinky Ring was designed collaboratively by George Yabu and Glenn Pushelberg, founders of the design firm Yabu Pushelberg, alongside musician Bruno Mars. Together Yabu and Pushelberg shared with AN Interior that, “Bruno Mars has a strong sense of who he is and what he wanted—retro, chic, Vegas in the 1970s—which made the design process both exciting and a challenge. He wanted it to feel like a private penthouse party. Building the trust to interpret his clear vision in a creative and cohesive way was crucial to the project’s success.” Other influences included the sultry tunes of Silk Sonic, Bruno Mars’s musical endeavor with Anderson. Paak, in addition to the infamous Rat Pack of the tuxedo-dressed Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Junior, and Dean Martin, who first brought entertainment to Las Vegas casinos.Read more about The Pinky Ring on aninteriormag.com.
