Extraordinary moments in an extraordinary setting – with a Michelin-starred menu or a glass of select champagne – are to be had in Aragu restaurant situated on the edge of a cliff overlooking the lagoon. The restaurant opens only for evening dining. The building will entice visitors with its simplicity of form, dominant entrance with an illuminated ‘golden portcullis’ and a roof shielding an infinite interior space seamlessly melding into a set of outdoor terraces overlooking the sea, with borders between what is inside and outside blurred. A generous space filled with hundreds of flying fish, made more subtle with an ingenious use of reflections and backlighting, is a breathtaking backdrop for an unforgettable experience. Traditional materials and forms deployed in surprising ways and ‘spiced up’ with a touch of contemporary design accents.
