In July of 2012 I won a contest for designing the front of the bar “Living”. This bar is one of the milestones of the night in Montevideo.
I had this idea of playing with de architecture of that place. I wanted to make al least two diferent designs in one: one during the day time, with the metallic windows closed (were you can see the bones of the animals and the woman), and another during the night when the bar es open and you can't see the designs of the windows.
I want to thanks to everyone involve in this project: to the people of Ballantine's, to Publicis Impetu, to the owners of the bar “Living” and to the painters of Publicartel that had to strugle with several storms to make this posible.

En julio del 2012 gané un concurso para diseñar la fachada del Bar “living”. Un Bar clave de la noche de Montevideo.
Mi idea fue que el diseño jugara con la arquitectura. Que tuviera al menos dos lecturas diferentes: una de día, con las persianas metálicas cerradas (donde se ve el interior de los animales y la mujer), y otra de noche, cuando el bar está abierto, y el diseño de las ventanas ya no se ven.
Va mi agradecimiento a todos los que lo hicieron posible: a la gente de Ballantine's, a Publicis Impetu, al Living y a los pintores de Publicartel que tuvieron que luchar con varias tormentas.
