在80年代，工业走廊包围了克雷塔罗市，随着时间的推移和城市的加速发展，作为城市郊区新工业中心重新安排的产物，留下了空置的工业建筑。在离象征性的引水渠几米远的地方，Banal餐厅就居住在这些回收的结构中，它的前主人曾经是一家葡萄酒和一家花店。
The industrial corridor which embraced the city of Queretaro in the eighties, throughout time and the accelerated growth of the city, left vacant industrial buildings as a product of the rearrangement of new industrial centers in the outskirts of the city. A few meters away from the symbolic Aqueduct, the restaurant Banal inhabits one of these recycled structures, whose previous owners used to be a wine and a flower shop.
客户要求我们创造一个空间，最大限度地利用现有的建筑，在短短三个月的时间内建成，以建立他们新的烹饪项目的身份，并适应严格的预算。
The clients, for whom we were building a new house at the moment, required us to create a space which would take maximum advantage of the pre-existing building, be built in only three months’ time, serve to establish the identity of their new culinary project, and also adjust to a tight budget.
这个方法从一个简单的想法开始：在不改变原有模式或结构的情况下，通过复制其内部的食客容量来扩大现有仓库。基于这些前提，在扩建的仓库和原有的仓库之间开辟了一连串的托架，以便将它们连接起来，以及另一个对称的序列，将两个区域与外部的绿色缓冲区结合起来，作为繁忙的大道和餐厅之间的中介。
The approach initiated with a simple idea: expand the existing warehouse by duplicating its interior capacity for diners, without altering the original modulation or structure. Based on these premises, a sequence of bays was opened between the expansion and the pre-existing in order to link them, as well as another symmetrical sequence to integrate both areas with an exterior green buffer operating as an intermediary between the busy avenue and the restaurant.
建筑的一个特殊细节是采用了悬空的空心砖格子：这是一个重要的元素，可以减轻阳光照射，缓和内部对街道交通的看法，并为露台上的内部吸烟区通风。总的来说，使用简单的低维护的外露材料，自然采光和通风的优势，以及开放式平面设计的实用性，也是完成这个项目的补充策略。
A peculiar detail of the construction was the implementation of a hanging hollow block latticework: an essential element to mitigate sun exposure, moderate the view from the interior towards street traffic, and ventilate the inner smoking area in the terrace. Collectively, the use of simple low maintenance exposed materials, the advantage of natural lighting and ventilation, and the practicality of the open floor plan were also complementary strategies for the fulfillment of this project.
