Space inspired by the Spanish Palace of Alhambra, located in Granada. In the image, the chandelier, walls and ceiling stand out, decorated with arabesque ornaments in high relief in blue, red and gold colors and people with clothes that refer to the Arab-Islamic aesthetic. Its space is associated with male sociability as it is used for smoking, playing games and holding meetings.
