GAUCHO WORKED WITH DESIGNLSM TO UPDATE ONE OF
ITS RESTAURANTS WITH A MODERN ARGENTINE AESTHETIC
Evolving its concept to operate
with a more socially and
environmentally responsible
focus, restaurant brand Gaucho
turned to DesignLSM to create an
interior for its Charlotte Street site
in London, UK, that would reflect
this vision, the spirit and
landscapes of modern Argentina
and the Gaucho way of life.
“It was important that we still
stayed true to the brand’s roots
but with a creative approach that
would move away from the
cowhide of old and on to a more
refined aesthetic that celebrates
the modern-day Gaucho,” says

On the ground floor, these
nods include leather seating
booths with crushed velvet
upholstery, a black and white
marble bar, and a lasso-inspired
lighting feature.
The lower ground floor
incorporates the main restaurant
space, cinema projector, fourcounter
beef bar and a 21-cover
private dining room.
The ochre, deep blue and
earth tones, plus a textured
plaster wall finish, were inspired
by Argentina’s wild landscapes.
