Aura Sant Cugat: The restaurant where you don't just eat, you feel. A maximalist sensory journey through Catalan cuisine.

A family project transforms a space into a "territory of experiences" with four distinct zones, where acoustics and light are key ingredients.

Sant Cugat, November 2025. In a world of minimalist designs and neutral spaces, Aura Restaurant bursts onto the scene with its own unique character, declaring that tradition can also be vibrant, colorful, and daring. This family project, which champions Catalan cuisine with a contemporary twist, was born with a clear premise: to be the meeting point for neighbors, the place where stories are shared at any time, and where the space itself invites you to linger.

To bring this ambitious vision to life, the owners entrusted the interior design studio PPT Interiorismo with their expertise. Under the premise of creating a maximalist space that puts the user experience front and center, the studio has woven a "sensory journey" divided into four acts or territories, where maximalism becomes the common thread of a unique user experience.
