Taking Apollo and Dionysus as aesthetic symbols, Nietzsche explored the dialectic spirit state: dreaming and intoxicating, illusion and ego. The space's name - Blazing Night, consisting of contrasting imagery. Therefore, we take the dialectic spirits as a spatial metaphor from the perspective of time. Blazing Night is based on a compound model of a cafe by day/a bar by night to illustrate the vision of interacting with the future. Therefore, using time as a design concept, we transform the complex commercial format into an immersive emotional experience.  Caption The light gives us the basic perception of time. Taking the variation of time as a design idea, we deploy visual languages to compose a flowing spatial narrative: as da... Mehr

Jaguar Negro is inspired by the History of Mexico in two ways. The first one is intimately linked to the ancestral heritage of the Aztec culture, already distant in time and characterized by legends that have been transferred from generation to generation. And a second counterpart, much closer to our time, based on the Colonial Hacienda and its way of experiencing space, but brought to the present with contemporary touches that have a lot to do with the use of material. The project is, then, the result of an aesthetic and functional binomial, where graphic design and interior design conspire in order to create total coherence in the concept of this magical project located in 7 Bancas Escazú - Costa Rica.
