Origen Restaurant

This restaurant, located between Doña Casilda park and the city's new commercial and financial district, draws its theme from the four elements of nature: water, wind, earth, and fire. Its eclectic interior design, free of all formalism, carries oriental influences and echoes of nature in all its forms.

The interior design, as mentioned, is inspired by the elements of nature. Earth appears in the ceramic wall cladding in ochre and gray tones, in the stone floor, and in the backlit alabaster behind the bar. Fire emerges from the ambient lighting on the pillars and walls, from nest-like designer sconces and cloud-like pendant lamps, joined by a continuous projection of flames on one of the walls that makes you feel inside a volcano. Wind flows across the ceilings, where textile sheets hang and ripple along their path like the belly of a whale. Water falls from the ceiling as a minimal curtain separating areas of the dining room.

All the energy of these contrasts, and the eclecticism that fills the space, is softened at the back by the vertical garden, a much more relaxing double-height area where southern light and views of the park invite you to enjoy your meal.

The furniture is welcoming, with a modern oriental-inspired design. Textiles, plant fibers, and wood exude comfort and make you feel embraced by Pachamama. It fits perfectly with the restaurant's interior design, which leaves no one indifferent.
