Set within Bicentenario Park, at the edge of Santiago, Mestizo appears as an extension of the landscape. The roof, supported by weight-bearing stones sourced from a quarry in nearby Pirque, becomes horizon, shelter, and civic gesture at once, offering shade and continuity while dissolving the boundary between interior dining and surrounding terrain. Wind, light, and distant views of the Andes are moderated through depth and proportion to create a spatial condition rooted in ground, climate, and shared presence.
