armoire à vin à enveloppe d'eau Explanation: http://www.pbase.com/bobfloyd/image/60059824 Aqua Knox Resturant, Venetian, Las Vegas NV I am thrilled and disappointed with this shot all at the same time. This is the very cool water encased walk-in wine cellar at the Aqua Knox Resturant inside the Venetian. What did not turn out so well is the water running down the outside of the case. You can see it in some of the light spots but overall it is lost. However, the whole of the photo was too cool not to use. |

cave à vin refroidie à l'eau Explanation: Aquaknox is highlighted by a water encased walk-in wine cellar and a state of the art open kitchen http://realtravel.com/f-16727-las_vegas_restaurant-aquaknox En cherchant ensuite des photos de ce restaurant, on tombe sur une espèce de grande tour faisant office de porte-bouteilles/cave à vin (http://images.clubzone.com/images/upload/aqua4.jpg) et dans les parois de laquelle de l'eau semble circuler, à mon avis dans le but de rafraichir les bouteilles et dans un but esthétique (cf aussi explication sur http://www.pbase.com/bobfloyd/image/60059824&usg=__L-W3Q-U6U... Cependant, ma formulation n'est sans doute pas idéale... |

cave à vin encastrée dans une fontaine murale Explanation: Vu que l'aspect esthétique est important, j'emploierais le mot "fontaine", voire "fontaine de décoration". Armoire et cellier semblent être des termes trop physiques, alors que cave à vin peut signifier la cave elle même comme la collection. |

cellier immergé Explanation: I believe that they're talking about a full fledge cellar, not just a chest, that for decorative purpose has been set in an aquatic environment -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days15 hrs (2009-02-07 06:10:22 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Thanks Trado 1... |
