The terrace of La Brasera restaurant in Olot, Spain by arnau estudi d’arquitecturaJune 23rd, 2015 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Arnau estudi d’arquitectura This low-cost projectof anuncertain time frame and lots of good will starts as a pretext to redesign for the new use an empty commercial property, situated next to a restaurant of the same owner. The commission set out for us is to adapt a part of this property to be used as a terrace of the restaurant. The condition is that neither the pavement, nor the false ceiling (installed some months before) can be removed, in order not to compromise the unforeseeable future of the property.

This pergola, which evokesthe images of the deep nearby forests, attenuates the soundness of the building that embraces it, thus creating a light and easy-going atmosphere.At the same time, it filters the light that comes from the already existing luminaires in the false ceiling and also from the new vertical wall covering made of polycarbonate and decorated with random leaves, which also serves as a boundary with the rest of the property.

It is a private space that wishes to be part of the public space, but, at the same time, it gives shelter, when needed, with its sliding doors that suddenly appear from the interior of the wood strip forest.
