Luzia restaurant interior design, a project by the Tragaluz group that arises from the transformation of the iconic ground floor space of La Xina, aims to create a brighter, younger, and more relaxed atmosphere. The goal is to attract a wider audience, both those strolling along Las Ramblas and residents of the neighborhood. The idea behind the design of Luzia restaurant is to make it an accessible place where people can enjoy quick meals like hamburgers or pizzas, as well as relaxed Sunday breakfasts.

To achieve this, visibility and openness to the street have been prioritized. The entrance has been highlighted with a guillotine window, taking advantage of the existing configuration. From outside, passersby can observe the new pizza area with a wood-fired oven clad in iron, a shelf for storing logs, and, most interestingly, see the pizza maker working in front of them. The scene unfolds on a rustic oak table, evoking the authenticity of country cooking, with a marble block for kneading, creating an attractive culinary spectacle for curious passersby.
