    Lyon based architectural firm Un Studio’s design for La Raffinerie, a beer bar in the city, impresses with its redefined industrial aesthetic. Inspired by the legendary work of French stalwarts such as Jean Prouve, Le Corbusier and Mathieu Mategot, the space features a wide range of bold, congruent elements that frequently occur such as the patterned flooring, consecutively aligned lustrous tubes and the dotted cutouts atop metallic surfaces.
