Our team has known how to define "Dani Carnero's little daughter" at La Cosmo, a hospitality concept that links the traditional and deep-rooted cuisine of the chef from Malaga, with the fun and informal touches that a restaurant space requires. 

With a setup that could not be modified by regulations, the design team has solved each creative challenge with the necessary dose of ingenuity, giving the space a characteristic "workshop" air where the kitchen staff acts as a mechanic, and the living room and kitchen are wrapped with light elements and kitchen utensils decorating their walls. A bar combines supply with demand, and makes the customer the protagonist of the space, whose attributes are represented in a colorful alphabet soup at the entrance. 

A gastro workshop. Cookwares as tools, and memories of a long career in the kitchen on their walls , with signatures and books of people who have accompanied Dani Carnero, brand and driving force behind La Cosmo. The space-client relationship, plus the gastronomy, is playful. Through a game of letters, which expresses the attributes of the business face-to-face and on social media, we achieve a point of attention and communication that is later completed with the local experience itself. 

For the kitchen, a color palette with influences from the classic Le Creuset pans, lighting typical of a mechanical workshop, and a set of mirrors that hide the storage of stuff from the view of the client, with whom he lives through an omakase bar . In the rest of the space, metal panels and automotive workshop elements lacquered in the corporate color palette maintain the concept resolved so that, regardless of the sitting, any client can experience the same idea of space.
