The Campobaja restaurant in Mexico City is a stunning industrial dining space characterized by its blending of indoor and outdoor space and its unique mix of materials. Certain elements of the space make the experience feel homey and welcoming, with details like stacked firewood under the deli counter and lush plants that further the theme of 'outside-in.' Other accent pieces such as a vintage life-preserver and reclaimed wood benches add to the industrial, rustic feel.
Designed by Estudio Atemporal, the Mexico City restaurant also follows the progression toward communal dining tables that infuse the experience with a sense of community, a desire that can be linked to the innate interest to form real connections amidst a time defined by limited instant communication.
