3. In the plaza, iron
light installations
mimic abstract forms
of fireworks, while
black and white beaded
shades add rhythm to
the space.

6. The upstairs private
event space overlooks
the entrance flower
installation, while a
ceiling wallcovering
continues the floral
aesthetic.

4. Flowers seem to grow
along the blue ceiling,
guiding guests to the
various metal kiosks
throughout the villagelike setting.

7. At the other end of
the second floor, four
areas that look out on
the buzzy town square
below are separated by
sliding monochromatic
screens.

5. Lightbulbs held by
tensioning cables and
festive purple flags mark
the church area, which
borders the restaurant's
central dining area.

Strings of lightbulbs held by tensioning
cables lead guests from the entrance to the
plaza-the main dining area that encourages
socializing with various colorful seating
areas and looks out onto the garden through
expansive windows. Guests sit underneath
a sky of lighting installations that resemble
the abstract form of fireworks, while black
and white beaded curtains hang at differing
heights to create "a rhythmic effect similar
to the curtains of the doors and windows in a
village," Canas del Pozo says. But no Spanish
village is complete without a church, which
here borders the central zone and is dressed
in purple flags and features a replica of the
bell that sits outside St. Peter's Basilica in
Vatican City.
Upstairs, the flowers transform once
again, this time as wallpaper enveloping

the private event space. Overlooking the
botanical entrance installation, which is
intended to represent the village florist,
natural light trickles in through large
windows. At the other end, four areas
separated by monochromatic beaded screens
offer the best views of the bustling plaza and
street below.
The blue tone on the walls and ceilings-
meant to evoke the sky-gives "the space a
festive and fresh atmosphere, typical of those
summer festivals in town," Canas del Pozo
points out. It is part of creating a common
"setting for many Spanish people: going
back home for the yearly village feast and
enjoying homemade food," she says. "Each
corner is as surprising as it is familiar." hd
