Designed for the most discerning of Manhattan’s nightlife patrons, the BAUHAUS Project at Laissez Faire is a profound study in sonic and architectural elegance.17 Tucked within the historic, 1883-erected Beekman Hotel in the Financial District, Laissez Faire is a bespoke cocktail lounge that masterfully juxtaposes raw industrial brickwork with luxurious velvet and brass finishes.17 The musical curation mirrors this sophistication, featuring an extended set by The Botanist.88 Drawing philosophical inspiration from the Bauhaus movement—where form strictly follows function—the musical selections focus on sleek, minimalist electronic grooves, deep house, and refined lounge music.89 There are no abrasive drops or blinding lasers; instead, the music acts as a structural element of the room, enhancing the upscale, conversational atmosphere.89 This event is precision-engineered for an affluent, mature demographic seeking premium cocktails, chic mid-century aesthetics, and low-BPM electronic music in an exclusive setting.17
