Alma Negra talks about an ancient stationery conversion in a wine restaurant. The project aims to meet some strict conditions: a long and tight plot and normative heights that didn’t allow the preservation of the existing mezzanine. Black steel structural profiles are the project focus. They set the rhythm in the local. In addition they brace the original stone wall.

They also order the local creating contrasted areas with different materials. (Wood to receive, coco doormat to filter, hardwood to sit and eat, and tile hydraulics in restrooms and kitchen)
