Three blue wooden benches, a brushed stainless steel table, and some Azorean cheese bread: this scenography characterises the brand new Bar Cascavel, a project bringing together this architecture studio and chef to bridge their practices. Their dialogue stems from a respect for the regional cultural context, a concern for the matter at hand, an exploration of contemporary social dynamics, solutions closely linked to local environments, the construction of a clear history and identity, and a reflection on Lisbon's future.
A multidisciplinary studio guided by the duality between chaos and beauty—and the power that lies in the outcome. With a passion for space, design, construction, and identity, they partner with brands and clients across various sectors, collaborating with artists and designers.
