Che Mono: A Restaurant Prepared for Innovation
Che Mono offers a flexible gastronomic experience that combines sophistication and relaxation in Banfield, Capital Federal. Located on the ground floor of a residential building in a commercial area, it serves as a meeting place from breakfast to evening cocktails. Che Mono's design embodies a lifestyle, reflected in both its interior and branding.
The space is centered around an L-shaped bar, creating two sections. One side hosts an intense cocktail area filled with flavors, while the other provides a serene daytime scene with the inviting scent of coffee. Materials were used strategically to reflect this dual purpose: the cocktail area features leather, wood, and greenery, while the daytime section uses blue cladding with soft furnishings. Outside, a welcoming pergola allows customers to enjoy the fresh air or enter the main dining area.
Che Mono transforms seamlessly throughout the day. The interior design uses varying material tones to transition from daytime relaxation to evening excitement, allowing for breakfasts, family lunches, business meetings, and romantic dinners.
In branding, Che Mono is positioned as a fresh yet sophisticated gastronomic experience. The brand identity is a mix of elegance and simplicity, mirroring the venue's ambiance. The logo, complemented by a symbol inspired by a monkey's habitat, conveys timeless charm. Menus and other elements enhance this aesthetic, while the choice of blue introduces elegance to the brand.
In Banfield's commercial landscape, Che Mono adds a touch of sophistication to the community. It serves as a versatile spot where people can enjoy a range of culinary experiences, making it a focal point in the neighborhood.
