In a mansion in the Colonial Zone, the intervention set out not to compete with history. The original coral stone walls were cleaned and left exposed; everything new rests against them without touching them.
Smoked oak, terracotta and low lighting create an intimate, almost domestic atmosphere. The open kitchen is integrated as a restrained stage.
A place where old and contemporary architecture share the same table.
