To create the necessary atmosphere, massive LED screens, holograms, and audio-reactive neon lighting were used, and the room is divided into several thematic zones of the bar and cybersport world, connected by a common concept.

About
Asian lounge bar Katana and cyber arena GP located at Horodotska Street 2 in Lviv. The entrance to Katana is through a shop located in an archway, with a secret entrance like in Hong Kong movies of the 90s.
Behind the entrance doors, you will find a typical Lviv entrance that throws you off balance. Going down the stairs, you enter a world of the atmosphere of the night quarters of Seoul, Hong Kong, Tokyo, and the world of the future and cyberpunk.

Each zone is multifunctional, making it possible to transform the entire venue from a classic bar to an event space, exhibition center, cybersport arena, coworking, and even a cinema. During the first month of the venue's operation, formats such as parties, workshops, installations, presentations, cybersport tournaments, live broadcasts, podcast recordings, and even a safe bomb shelter were implemented.
The premises are located in the basement of a five-story building listed as a monument of local architecture, so during the preparation, the architects did everything to preserve the historical value of the object - such elements as old brickwork, metal arches, and supports were used and deliberately emphasized in the interior, which, combined with futuristic decoration, creates a real feeling of time travel.
