without speaking a word of the language. “We could have gone a more contemporary route and it could have worked, but we wanted the space to have that roughness to it, and a little bit of history,” explains Dwight. To that end, he surrounded the bar with more than 100-year-old one-inch thick Spanish concrete tiles; originally handcrafted in the 1880s for a Spanish villa, each one is stamped with the artisan’s name. To contrast their historical flavor, Dwight placed them around a monolithic concrete bar, which he was intent to build in one solid pour in order to create the ultimate clean-lined, strong, modern-looking structure. “That was the balance—these intricate tiles are very sturdy but they’re very delicate in appearance, so we balanced that with the heaviness of the bar,” he says. That contrast continues in the metal rosettes he used as partition walls and also as a frame above the bar and open kitchen. Made of forged iron, they are very strong, but their pattern is delicate. Elsewhere throughout the 2,800-square-foot, 113-seat space, wood furniture with metal details, brick walls, exposed ceiling piping, concrete floors, and antique as well as reproduction antique metal candelabra chandeliers complete the been-there-forever feel. The showpiece: an oversized black-and-white mural of a matador dueling with a charging bull. “We wanted to layer in the delicacy of the matador balanced against the brutality of the bull. It had that old school, multilayered feel,” he says, adding that they looked at 500 images before picking this one. “The bull is charging at you in a way that really catches your attention. We thought this shocking image would jar guests into thinking this [place] is something different, allowing them to feel transported.” hd www.grizform.com; estadio-dc.com
