Mexican architecture and interior design studio Pragma Estudio and architect Javier Monteon collaborated on the design of a local cuisine restaurant in Guadalajara, Mexico. The concept of space begins with a fusion of Mexican culinary and bartending traditions, the tonal range of deserts, and the characteristics of large estates. 

For this project, desert hues were mixed in the earthen plaster. Performance tests were made with different ratios of aggregates to achieve a balance of color, texture, hardness, and resistance to cracking. Once the desired tone was achieved, continuity with the monochromatic palette was sought, replicating it in the wooden surfaces with smooth edges that, while adding texture on decks and furniture pieces, still kept the clean lines and carvings characteristic of the Mexican northwestern craftsmanship. 

This main hue continues on the floors, where a unique pattern pairs up with the textured wall surface. The low walls, in various different heights, work as partitions, generating distinct atmospheres in the table clusters. These textured walls with their smooth edges give the impression of having arisen from the very ground and eroded away.
