formafatal used a bright color palette which extends to the sheet metal, paintings, ceramic tiles, and furniture used. the monochrome tiles are accented by symbols typical of mexico such as the ‘sombrero’ hats as well as brightly lit, stylized cacti. other features include plastic garlands imported directly from mexico and woven pillows featuring the sun from the ‘burrito loco’ logos. 

monochrome tiles serve as a neutral background for the bright orange furnishings

as a creative architecture and interior design practice, formafatal approaches each project with attention to detail. create concepts are realized to provide each client with a strong design identity. the firm also designed the ‘gran fierro’ restaurant in prague which has a distinctly south-american character to celebrate argentine cuisine.
