Chido Castizo & Chingón Opens New Madrid Outpost

Perceptions are distorted across the cheeky but sleek eatery in the city’s Chamberí neighborhood

Words by: Will Speros • Photos by Asier Rua

A new outpost of Chido Castizo & Chingón has opened Madrid’s Chamberí neighborhood. Local firm MOCA estudio crafted the ground floor restaurant to maximize its longitudinal axis and compose a linear route through the interior, which is oriented into five sections. “The main reason for developing the project was to generate five equally interesting spaces in a tube-shaped local,” says MOCA estudio. “Each one has its own particular interest, inviting the customers to go through them all.”

Vertical neon elements, floor-to-ceiling mirrors, and gloss-finished tiling line the space to distort perception in intimate areas, while larger spaces are distinguished by exposed ceilings wrapped in black paint. “Black textures act as intensifiers for the elements that take center stage in each space,” MOCA estudio adds. Indeed, the darkened ceilings contrast the beige hues and cement resin found in the dining rooms, which are warmly complemented by oak wood and patterned upholstery. Carved black marble also adorns the bar counter and a pair of large tables in the private dining room and a transitional area, respectively.

LEDs are subtly installed to highlight the joints between horizontal and vertical surfaces as well. Finally, for a dash of whimsy, sculptural primates descend from the ceiling in certain areas in homage to Chido’s logo of a grinning primate.
