• LOCATION
EL CAMION is located on one of the corners
of this rest stop, in an area of 22.5 x 10m,
where it is unfeasible to park.
Surrounded by trucks, with constant
movement, there is always a new landscape.
The restaurant is locked up between trucks;
hence the project looked for the creation of
an “interior”, providing patios in which truck
drivers could rest after working hours.
ENTRY
The external v isual of the restaurant is v ery
welcoming subjecting to a v ery great guest
experience.
The project proposes a main v olume of 20 x
2.5m and 6m in height, that achiev es the
desired intimacy, while establishing a formal
dialogue with the surrounding elements. A big,
yet light container emerges within the rest of
the trucks in the parking lot. This main element
configurates the image of EL CAMION: a
wickerwork box that rises ov er the trucks,
v isible from the highway. The restaurant´s
interior is organized through a sequence of
enclosed smaller v olumes, interspersed by
v oids: toilets, patio, an enclosed dining hall
(yet to be built), patio, and kitchen.

Materiality:
Guayaquil cane and carrizo cane with anti-woodworm
treatment and UV v eneer, masonry painted white.
The materiality distinguishes two systems. First, a system of
reinforced masonry painted white for the smaller v olumes.
Second, a system of Guayaquil cane for the container v olume.
The box rises up to 6 meters, using the maximum length allowed
by the cane. The structure is solv ed though porches braced by
canes in its surrounding, and steel tensors in the interior and roof;
all of these bracings are located in the upper section of the
space—a table-like structure. The joints between canes, columns,
beams, and bracings are made with bolts and fasteners.
Moreov er, rigidity in the knots is assured by infiltrating concrete in
the canes.
