Otra
Kala Ghoda
2024

'Otra' - meaning another in Spanish, is a second restaurant venture from award-winning restaurateurs, offering a unique and flavorful journey through Latin American cuisine. The design vision was to create a space that embodied the essence of Otra's culinary philosophy. 

The space opens up with a main door designed with influences of Central American architecture and finished with a solid copper handle. Deep, Earthy green hues envelop the walls, creating a sense of immersion and tranquility. Salvaged wood, sourced from the client's family farm, forms the frames across the walls and the bar cladding instilling a sense of heritage and grounding within the modern space.

Anchoring the central space of Otra is a captivating semi-circular granite bar, finished in weathered wood and amplified by a luminous backdrop of green onyx sourced from Rajasthan. Providing an immersive experience for cocktail enthusiasts, the bar also divides the space into a lounge area featuring a high banquette setting and a dining space with granite tables, comfortably equipped to seat 70 guests.

The lighting design played a pivotal role in setting the mood and ambience by creating a dim and sultry vibe. Headlined by two geometric granite chandeliers and supported by soft pendant lights, the lighting creates intimate conversation and culinary exploration spaces.
