A way of penetrating what is visible to reach what is essential
“Transparency”
The concept that inspired the team to create this proposal for 2025 was transparency — not as a visual resource or cooking trick, but instead as an attitude. Transparency as the quality that materials have to allow them to let light through, but also as a way of looking beyond the surface of things.
What lies behind a texture?
What emotions does a gesture arouse?
What do we see when we look at others, or even at ourselves?
To explore new ways of stimulating and questioning everything we take for granted
In a world that seems to look more in the rearview mirror than to the horizon, we at Mugaritz continue to champion creativity and constant questioning. Each season is fleeting, like a spring among cherry blossoms: it is born, it blooms, and it disappears. A proposal that will only exist while alive.
Far from simply thinking about a menu, we have designed an experience that invites diners to think with their body and eat with their mind. This is a new opportunity to activate the de-algorithm, to discover that the unknown is always in the next idea.
“The possible of the impossible is measured by the will of a human being”
