This restaurant is called Parque de la Florida in the Basque region of Spain. The interiors aren’t particularly remarkable but I admire the way the three sections of the structure sit in a line among the trees, with simple vertical wood framing and glass giving the place a low-profile that doesn’t detract from the park.

Integrated into large public parks or enclosures. The adequacy of these buildings to the site is linked to the idea of easy (or removal if necessary), speed of implementation and use of lightweight materials with specific technological solutions.
The scale of the place and the difficulties of site suggest splitting the program into three pavilions connected. The building is conceived as a set of parts prepared in the workshop and then assembled on site.

Except for the basement, two dominate the building materials: wood and glass. The detachable structure of the three bodies are made entirely in wood. Soil parameters and furnishings are of the same material. The glass surrounding the two bodies sealed transparent.

I really enjoy this place and while writing the article I found myself dreaming of garden parties, and the ongoing fantasy of finding just the right outdoor furniture to suit my vision.
