How can you create a warm and gastronomic atmosphere using concrete? In adding wood, light and colors and in articulating spaces together. This fish restaurant in Lima is an experience in itself, alternating different spaces surrounded by high concrete walls. Dining rooms and patios create different atmospheres, avoiding the feeling of confinement and harshness brought by concrete. A very clever design.
Comment faire chaleureux et gustatif avec du béton ? En y ajoutant bois, lumière et couleurs, et en pensant à l’organisation spatiale. Ce restaurant de poissons de Lima est une expérience en soi, par l’alternance des espaces enserrés par de hauts murs de béton. Salles et patios se suivent créant différentes ambiances, évitant le sentiment d’enfermement et de rudesse du béton. Une conception très astucieuse.

Beautiful building, isn’t it ? This is one of the new addition in McDonald’s new experiential strategy. McDonald’s has started to integrate client experience schemes (mainly interior and exterior architecture) into its development strategy. Not only are the new McDonald’s more beautiful, they also fit better with their environment and minimise their ecological footprint.
For example, this brand new McDonald’s in Batumi, Georgia, has been conceived to integrate smoothly a gas station thanks to its form and the use of water and plants as natural fumes filters.
