San Luis, Argentina. 2019.
Ónice. In 1947, the emblematic Hotel Dos Venados was inaugurated in San Luis. In 2019, the challenge was to revive the old restaurant that is part of this iconic place, considered a historical heritage of the city. Thus was born Ónice, a name derived from the representative mineral of the area from which the color and geometry were taken for the identity: green onyx. Icons of San Luis history that combine to once again put the heart of the hotel on stage. The premise? To respect its history but fill it with life again, to find the balance between the classic and the modern, the historical and the contemporary.
