A La Gringa Brazilian Restaurant in Budapest

This Brazilian restaurant in the heart of Budapest is a warm, lively place to eat, where bold colour, rich textures and playful lighting set the mood. A palette of strong colours, softened by a light grey microcement floor, makes the welcome, while three-dimensional triangular brick details give the eye something to rest on throughout the interior.

The restaurant has two storeys, and the basement dining area has no natural light. The answer is a custom-designed textile ceiling with integrated LED lighting, which glows like soft sunlight and brings warmth and brightness into the intimate lower level.

Expressive materials, well-judged lighting and a clear answer to each constraint turn the limits of the space into its best features, a cosy setting for shared meals and good company.
