Located in Barcelona, Bellavista del Jardín del Norte by El Equipo Creativo is a restaurant where guests could enjoy a re-interpretation of classic tapas in a relaxed and fun environment and where they would feel at home. Based on the premise of “your home away from home” the interior design references the idea of daily life and festive spirit of small villages in Spain, but also all around the world.

 

Different elements in the form of metal kiosks guide you through the space until you reach the large garden located at the end of the space. These elements are an abstraction of the festive elements in village towns: a street adorned by a ceiling of flowers and lights that accompanies you to the plaza (main square). This plaza overlooking the garden becomes the icing on the cake as it hosts an open space underneath a sky of fireworks. The final result of the design creates a sensation of a familiar setting for many Spanish people: going back home for the yearly village feast and enjoying homemade food. Each corner is as surprising as it is familiar.

Despite the size of the space of 1000 sqm, the goal was to create a functional yet intimate space. The place is divided into two floors, both facing the street on one side and the garden on the other side. The ground floor has a variable width, after the generous entrance the space becomes narrow in the middle, like a prelude that precedes the lavish garden at the back. This spatial experience is integrated into the concept, unifying the entrance and the middle zone in a sort of stroll through the village towards the plaza. The second floor has views to both directions and contains more private areas. The event rooms receive the light from the street sifted through the flower stalks of the entrance. Its wallpaper-lined walls reproduce the floral spirit of the exterior while ensuring the acoustic comfort. The space is made flexible by means of retractable dividers that split the space into two.
