在美丽的莫雷利亚市中心的一座始建于19世纪的宅邸内，设计者打造了一个融合墨西哥文化烹饪起源于东方理念的没事绿洲。Josafat Zalapa餐厅的诞生源于在顾客就餐时营造一种颠覆性氛围的想法，设计者的灵感来源于日语词汇“Omakase”，意思是“我相信你”或“厨师的选择”。通过提供独特的体验，让食客踏上烹饪之旅，并沉浸在菜肴的准备过程中。

In the heart of the beautiful city of Morelia, within a 19th-century mansion, emerges a gastronomic oasis that combines the culinary origins of Mexican culture with oriental concepts. Josafat Zalapa restaurant was born from the idea of creating a disruptive atmosphere when sitting down to eat, drawing inspiration from the Japanese word “Omakase,” which signifies “I trust you” or “chef’s choice.” Through a unique experience, diners embark on a culinary journey, immersing themselves in the preparation of their dishes.

顾客的体验从进入这座历史建筑便开始了，他们会在展示了艺术品的走廊中受到工作人员迎接，从这里能够通往装饰着各种艺术品的庭院。在庭院的中心拜访了一件干枯植物的雕塑作品，暗示了建筑物内时间的流逝。

The user experience begins with access to the historic property, where guests are welcomed by a corridor and gallery, leading to a courtyard adorned with various artworks along its perimeter. In the center, a sculptural piece with dead vegetation alludes to the passage of time within the building.

本项目包括了两个与内部庭院相邻的巴洛克建筑风格的房间。其中主要空间中设置了一个雕塑吧台配有20张由设计师设计的椅子，另一个空间则是第二个带有吧台的房间。在餐厅空间中，巨大的石墙包围了项目的核心：一个狭长的吧台，顾客围绕厨师落座，为欣赏烹饪盛宴做准备。

The architectural program consists of two rooms adjacent to the interior courtyard, flanked by baroque architectural elements. The main space houses a sculptural bar with 20 designer chairs, while subtly revealed on one side is a second room with a bar. Upon entering the restaurant, the massive quarry walls enclose the centerpiece of the project: an elongated bar where patrons gather around the chef, preparing for the culinary spectacle.

设计者通过对室内进行设计，实现了历史建筑与家居、装饰品和材料这些现代元素之间的平衡，营造了一种内省、优雅和平静的氛围。吧台的概念进一步强调了由主厨决定菜肴的流程，设计者在沿着地板边缘处安装了间接照明，框出了石墙的轮廓，突出了随着时间的推移所累计下来的历史痕迹，并保留了建筑的价值。

Through interior design, the project achieves a balance between the architecture of the past and contemporary elements expressed in the furniture, decor, and materials, creating an introspective, elegant, and sober atmosphere. The bar concept further emphasizes the dishes prepared by the chef, while indirect lighting along the floor edge frames the existing quarry walls, highlighting the layers of history accumulated over time and preserving their architectural value.

本设计的前提是尊重该地区的建筑风格，设计者进行了巧妙的室内设计，以实现现代与历史建筑的融合。在材料的选择方面遵循本质原则，将木地板和墙壁上的彩色水泥涂料结合起来。在设计过程中，设计者将重点放在了照明设计和家具集成上，这反映在所有元素的设计中——从吧台旁的线形照明到顾客落座的椅子。

The design premise was to respect the architecture of the place, subtly intervening in the interiors to achieve a timeless proposal that blends with the building’s historical layers. The material selection remained essentialist, integrating wooden floors and pigmented cement coatings on the walls. During the intervention, emphasis was placed on lighting design and furniture integration, resulting in the design of each element, from the linear lamps accompanying the bar to the chairs where diners savor their food.
