In 2002, the General Direc­torate of the futur­istic “City of the Arts and Sciences” in Valencia tasked the agency with the creation of the Restau­rant “Sub­marino” in L’Oceanografic, Europe’s largest aquarium. In keeping with the high stan­dards of the facility built by star archi­tect Felix Candela, the agency’s archi­tec­tural team conceived an open spatial concept with a central bar, selecting time­less furnish­ings with modern clas­sics and contem­po­rary accents.

“In ‘Submarino’, guests feel they are in a deep-sea restau­rant,’ wrote the “Fein­schmecker” magazine, and praised above all the “large light fixtures styled to look like Chinese lampions”, which bathe the restau­rant day and night in a white light that harmo­nizes perfectly with the cool blue of the surrounding aquarium.
