Restaurant Clube de Vela da Costa Nova

The Costa Nova Sailing Club, one of the oldest nautical clubs in the estuary area of the Ria de Aveiro, was divided into 3 main spaces: the restaurant, the members’ bar and the terrace. For each of these spaces, there was a specific audience, with different preferences and traditions, which provoked the great challenge of this project.

It was intended to renew a space damaged by the passage of time and, at the same time, to keep the space recognizable from the “old”, respecting the memories and its value, still relevant to all members of the Members’ Club.

Thus, the wood remained as the backdrop of the typical Costa Nova haystack, in order to root this memory, however, always used combined with modern and technologies, such as retroilluminated wooden pieces, in order to create a unique and comfortable environment.

In terms of the morphology of the space, it was clear that the excessive division of the same was impairing the fluency of the route, and then we decided to create a single counter, and this maintained, although sublime, the division between the restaurant and the bar of the partners.

In the restaurant, we decided to take advantage of the later view under the esturea, through large spans with a minimalist expression, in order to maintain a cleaner panoramic view. And the kitchen, now expanded, allowed the user to monitor the work and conditions of the same.
