Sensory Aesthetic
Sensory Aesthetic is a wine tasting house set among tall trees in the gardens of Mangabeira Palace in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The house is designed to support the collecting and tasting of wine. Natural materials such as wood and stone cover the external and internal walls, and leather is used on the furniture, creating a cozy and intimate ambiance. The wine cellar is air-conditioned and automated. Through an application, the visitor selects a country and LED lights illuminate all labels from that region. An outdoor deck offers further seating.
