Project overview

Mirano Brussels (once Mirano Continental) has been a fixture of Brussels nightlife since 1934, when it opened as a neighbourhood cinema with an art-deco, modernist façade and a grand marquee. In 1981 it became a nightclub, founded by Paul Sterck and his partners in the image of Studio 54 and Le Palace, complete with a rotating dance floor and light shows built to match. We built its identity after the venue's 2019 reopening under Art-Blanc — a graphic language that lets retro and techno share the same logo.
