Summary
Spanish design studio Clap Studio renovated the El Cubo room at Valencia's iconic Spook nightclub, drawing inspiration from "dead rooms" — acoustically treated spaces used for recording and mixing music. The redesign features a central DJ booth surrounded by tiered seating, acoustic paneling, and a warm, intimate atmosphere that prioritizes sound quality and the music-listening experience. The project follows their earlier success with sister club Oven and pays homage to Spook's history as a key venue in Valencia's 1980s Ruta del Bakalao club scene.

The concept of a 'dead room' comes from recording studios — spaces designed to absorb sound reflections and create a pure, uncolored listening environment.
Spook is not just a nightclub; it's a piece of Valencia's cultural history, and we wanted to honor that while bringing it into the present.
