2024
When offered this project, we were given a completely
empty slate for the concept development to the
interior design of the space in Istanbul’s Etiler
neighbourhood.

Inspired by Luis Barragán’s architecture, we made
us of bold colors, contrasting geometric forms, and
natural materials to create a space with a lasting
personality.

From start to finish, we’ve designed Mezkla where every piece of the concept, name, brand, and space reflects the harmonious mix (mezcla) of Turkish and Mexican traditions, creating something new and unforgettable.

Branding was essential in unifying Mezkla’s concept, with every element—logo, color palette, menu, and signage—thoughtfully crafted to create a cohesive and memorable identity.
