Open in 1949, the Bar Rivieira, during the 60's and 70's had been an important meeting place for the intellectual left of São Paulo, a type of piéce de résistance during the Brazilian military regime. Living through the glorious epoch, already quite decadent, the establishment had closed its doors. The curved lines of the glass bricks of the façade are transported to the inside. The result is a sinuous counter, done in Corian resin, registered throughout the ground floor. In the center, the waiters and barmen serve the public; and around them the clients can openly see the whole space, seeing all of the people in the enclosure. A sculpture-like staircase, originally from the space, takes us to the first floor, where there is the large salon on the restaurant and the kitchen. The organization of the site is done by a curved wooden gable which separates the restaurant from all the technical and preparation areas. On the first floor, there are nightly shows with live music, as in a jazz club. The choice of the furniture privileged pieces of classic modern design, such as the Bertoia bar stools on the ground floor and the Danish 7 Series chair, by Arne Jacobsen. The material chosen, such as the dark wood for the walls, sought to create a cozy atmosphere for the bar. While the ground floor looks to the inside, with its more informal ambient, the first floor has large glass Windows from where it is possible to see the high tunnels and avenues, creating a relationship with the surrounding urbanity.
