New Turqueta restaurant design, part of the Saona group, the focus is on creating spaces that convey the essence of Menorca with a homely atmosphere. The project has centered on enhancing this ambiance, improving comfort, and culinary offerings.
Natural and traditional colors and materials have been used to provide diners with a comfortable experience throughout the restaurant. One of the design highlights is the creation of a courtyard at the end of the premises, utilizing an existing skylight and adding a new English patio to maximize natural light entry. The use of garden furniture, abundant vegetation, and a reed ceiling recreates the sensation of being on a porch.
The central volume, clad in oak wood, serves as a connection point between all interior lounges, housing the kitchen and internal areas of the establishment. The Turqueta bar, located at the entrance, stands out for its two-level design and a back bar that incorporates mirror angles and linear lighting, creating a sophisticated effect with simple elements.
Distinctive elements have been used in the design of the new restaurant Turqueta in the various rooms. Careful details such as handmade ceramic plates, a wall with recovered Mallorcan doors in blue tones, and traditional island hats have been incorporated to give personality to each space and enliven the overall restaurant ambiance.
