Descripción del Proyecto

At Bar Kar, an immersive wood-fired restaurant that revolves around the concept of primordial community cooking, the journey begins at the main entrance where guests are greeted by a distorted arch evoking the ambiance of a cave-like space. Inside, patrons get immersed in an infinite firewood-lined pathway that leads towards the heart of the establishment. Inside the cavernous interior with its earthy terracotta hues, were inspired by the earth oven pits which in ancient times were used to cook and smoke food in the ground. The two main features of the space, a cir-cular bar counter constructed out of red travertine and a plush banquet sofa seating area, anchored by a fiery gold metal mesh sculpture are both abstract interpretations of the elemental force of heat and fire. For those seeking an interactive dining experience, the Chef’s Table offers a U-shaped counter constructed from grey travertine, accommodating up to 20 guests eager to engage with the chefs and witness the pri-mordial style woodfire cooking up close. The private dining room transports diners into a cocoon-like sanctuary, drawing inspiration from the organic contours of a cave, with cascading layers and a floating fire mesh sculpture above a striking red travertine dining table. Bar Kar epitomizes the concept of primordial community cooking, where elements of heat and fire are em-bodied in terracotta stucco walls, fiery mesh installations, and the earthy hues of red travertine, inviting guests on a culinary journey reminiscent of ancient cooking traditions. One of the key features of the space is the firewood lined corridor that patrons have to pass through to enter into the restaurant and its actually using the same wood that the chef use to cook inside the kitchen. Therefore its actually used as an auxiliary firewood storage space for cooking. Its a locally natural material which can be replenished and reused at all times, which we have turned into a building material. Its also become a signature viral spot as customers to take photos at after they dine thus making it functional in both as a storage space and an iconic architecture design element that is unique only to the restaurant.
