Atelier

La Consentida, an exclusive space, fun, with a lot of music and evening parties in the city of Santander.

Atelier

In October 2021, this establishment located in the main square of the Cantabrian capital began its story, presenting itself as a meeting place for people who want to enjoy a great atmosphere. La Consentida is designed so that «you live moments you'll never want to end. We offer you after-work afternoons, wines on the terrace, or drinks to the rhythm of music.».

Carmen González, creative director of Studio San Fernando, was responsible for bringing La Consentida to life. She herself tells how they approached this project. «It's a space that has its own voice. Sometimes when you come across a project, the space itself speaks to you, and this is a space that, when we saw it, it spoke. It spoke very clearly because it's a beautiful space, very well defined and it fit in very well with the proposals that the owners were asking us for. La Consentida is a special place.».

The owners of the venue were very clear on what they wanted «they come from the hospitality world and had more venues where we had performed, but they were venues of different types of hospitality: hotels,pubs too... What they were looking for was something totally different with a very strong personality and that didn't have a trend, but rather something, as I said before, very personalized, a place very different from any of the ones they were already used to.».

For the bathrooms, the Studio San Fernando team was looking for something different and groundbreaking, and they remembered Bathco's proposal at Cevisama 2019: luminous pigments that glow in the dark and fit this type of venue. For this reason, they met with the artists at Bathco Atelier to launch a tailor-made project. The interior designer always looks for unique, exclusive, and spectacular materials, and she tells us that «Atelier artists, like all artists, have that degree of madness and go beyond even what you propose. Wonderful synergies are created. It's true that when we have special projects, we count on Bathco because they always add value and never say no to what you propose, and the light effects. I remember that three years ago at the Cevisama fair, at the Bathco stand, there was a beautiful sink with drawings and some luminous pigments, and it stuck in my head.»

Two sinks can be seen in the girls' bathroom. Dinan CRU painted by the artists of Bathco Atelier as a way of graffiti while in the boys' room we can see the suspended washbasin. Bruselas and the New Ronda toilet.
