CASE STUDY

Mexická Restaurant- 20-20 ARCHITEKTI-

Project Mexická was initiated by the Together gastro alliance. Its co-owner, David Petřík, considers Asia, Italy, and Mexico to be the biggest players on the world gastronomic scene, so adding Mexico to their portfolio was only a matter of time. The investor’ s brief was to create a monumental space in Prague offering not only Central American cuisine, but also an experience of its culture as such. From the beginning, the main idea was to mix an open kitchen, large wood-fired ovens, and a noisy Mexican hacienda. Mexická was to become Together’ s largest venture.
What is unique about the entire restaurant is its concept. The very fact that we are building two floors of galleries with a central courtyard into the elevated space of the former Holešovice brewery is exceptional enough, and when we add to that a multi-armed staircase illuminated with gold and sparkling with references to the history of Mexico during the Mayan era, it is clear that guests are in for an architecturally unusual experience.
