Transformation of the DRAGON into a MILLENARIAN DRAGO, to create an ATMOPHERE of fantasy and dreams

estudi{H}ac, has used it as the base of this exciting story to distribute the layout of the restaurant in different areas with various textures, sensations and colours, combining areas with tables and tailor-made benches adapted to each part of the legend.

The selection of colours on which the project is based is dominated by ash and splashes of earth, green and red. Volcanic stone walls and floors, copper structures, black ceramic scales and a large image of a dragon's skin come together to create a tenuous atmosphere in the lobby.

The fire is represented by an imposing barbecue that opens up on to the central axis of the space. The heart of the dragon is red and crowned with a set of lights that symbolize its tail.The island's folklore and its interesting plant life is represented by the peculiar morphology of the Drago, transformed into a large structure of wooden slats that simulate the characteristic forms of the tree to generate a whole new area with tables inside the space.

The terrace includes all the architecture and crafts of Tenerife by means of a system of lattices around the outdoor terrace and the floor takes the form of a large black sand beach with custom-designed graphics.
