Eat & Speak: Alicante, Spain

Eat & Speak, a place to disconnect and talk together, enjoying a meal in an environment inspired by Mid-Century forms and contrasting metallic and natural finishes.

Located in the center of Spanish coastal city Alicante, the project was engineered by Caliz Vazquez Arquitectos to provide a place to gather with a very distinctive atmosphere.

Adjacent to the large side windows the architects placed a bank of tables, designed to enjoy the natural light, and a central space in which to locate three tables, each illuminated by a signficant hanging lamp that embodies the spirit of the interior and creates an discernible idendity from the exterior.

The Flamingo pendant lamp exudes an almost mysterious modernity that echoes mid-century design sensibilities and shapes. The enigma of the floating discs is grounded by beautifully finished gold hardware which contains a dimmable LED source.

Continuing the mission of joining people together, a large group table is designed where you can meet and talk, and even be thrown together with people you don’t know.
