Origen Bar
-
Project Title: Origen
Institution: ITESO University
-
Course: Materials and Finishes
Semester: 7th Semestrer
During my 7th semester at ITESO University, I designed a restaurant bar in Guadalajara, Jalisco, where Mexican culinary heritage meets contemporary architecture. This project involved an in-depth exploration of materials, human behavior, and experiential design.
A defining feature of the space is a centrifugal tree, prominently placed in front of the kitchen—the symbolic heart of the restaurant. This architectural element represents vitality and origin, enhancing both the visual and spatial experience.
The design also integrates open spaces and natural light, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection that fosters well-being and interaction with the environment. By merging traditional Mexican elements with modern design principles, the project offers an immersive and enriching dining experience that engages the senses through culture, space, and light.
