How did this place come about and what made it different from the start?
<\/strong>Naci\u00f3 de un gusto convertido en pasi\u00f3n, que con el tiempo se volvi\u00f3 una oportunidad de compartir el buen caf\u00e9 desde un espacio pensado y construido para disfrutar. Gema est\u00e1 escondido entre las calles de una zona residencial, lo que lo hace tranquilo, no comercial y un lugar al que te programas para visitar. Cuando vienes a Gema tomas la decisi\u00f3n consciente de venir a la calma de la cafeter\u00eda, mientras nosotros nos hacemos responsables de crear bebidas que superen tus expectativas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What part of the day, space, or creative process do those who work here enjoy the most?
<\/strong>Es dif\u00edcil elegir solo un momento, ya que tener un espacio donde se ha creado una comunidad tan s\u00f3lida y formar parte de un equipo donde todos est\u00e1n dispuestos a crecer y ver crecer te da una identidad y un sentimiento de hogar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sin embargo, si debo elegir, ser\u00eda ese momento donde los turnos se unen a compartir ideas, recetas y an\u00e9cdotas de su d\u00eda, nutriendo el prop\u00f3sito de ofrecer un espacio donde las personas vengan a pasar un momento agradable entre tazas de caf\u00e9. Gema se ha convertido en mi lugar seguro, donde s\u00e9 que se me permite crear mi mejor versi\u00f3n sin juicios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If someone is coming in for the first time, what should they not miss?
<\/strong>Un flat white preparado por Nat<\/strong><\/a>, un filtrado preparado por Diego<\/strong><\/a>, los chilaquiles y la tarta vasca de la chef Isa<\/strong><\/a>, el servicio de Uriel<\/strong><\/a> y la atenci\u00f3n de Nicole<\/strong><\/a>. Solo por dar un ejemplo: cada uno de los colaboradores aporta algo especial que hace que las visitas a Gema valgan la pena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What has been an interesting challenge that has made you rethink something about the project?
<\/strong>La ubicaci\u00f3n en un principio nos hizo dudar sobre si el proyecto tendr\u00eda \u00e9xito, ya que estamos escondidos, lejos de las zonas m\u00e1s comerciales de la ciudad, en una ciudad donde la cultura del caf\u00e9 apenas tiene un par de a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adem\u00e1s, espacialmente el lugar es peque\u00f1o, as\u00ed que en familia, conformada por dise\u00f1adoras, ingenieros y arquitectos, logramos sobrellevar el reto de adaptar el espacio para recibir a nuestros clientes y poder crear nuestras bebidas y alimentos como se merecen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What influence, idea, or reference continues to shape the way you work today?
<\/strong>Gema Caf\u00e9 est\u00e1 inspirado en nuestra mam\u00e1, Gema Garc\u00eda. Madre, esposa y educadora que dedic\u00f3 su vida a compartir y servir a los dem\u00e1s, adem\u00e1s de trabajar y disfrutar mucho la vida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hace cinco a\u00f1os que ya no nos acompa\u00f1a en este plano, pero ha sido fuente de inspiraci\u00f3n para crear cada detalle del espacio. Desde los colores, los materiales, las bebidas y el servicio, todo est\u00e1 pensado en lo que ella inspira. Con el tiempo, la calidad del caf\u00e9 se ha convertido en otro eje importante del proyecto. Las personas nos reconocen por el buen servicio y el buen caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What place, project, or person has inspired you recently and why?
<\/strong>El arquitecto\u00a0Kengo Kuma<\/strong><\/a>, por el uso de los materiales y la aplicaci\u00f3n de las maderas y texturas de maneras \u00fanicas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Las obras de\u00a0Haruki Murakami<\/strong><\/a>, por su visi\u00f3n art\u00edstica y porque, como referencia, siempre hay cafeter\u00edas donde suena m\u00fasica jazz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Por \u00faltimo, las sobremesas en diversos pa\u00edses, como un momento especial para compartir alimentos y tener conversaciones de todo tipo. Gema son historias.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If your space could invite someone to collaborate for a day, who would it be and what would you do together?
<\/strong>It would be Jenny Borrego<\/strong><\/a>, para tenerla de barista invitada y hacer alg\u00fan taller. Tambi\u00e9n a\u00a0Standart Magazine<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0para platicar sobre la cultura del caf\u00e9 en nuestro pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Is there an object, corner or detail of the place that has a story that few people know?
<\/strong>Los cuadros que tenemos a los dos lados del espacio son peque\u00f1as postales al coraz\u00f3n en nombre de Gema Garc\u00eda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If this project were a city, a book, or a record, which would it be and why?
<\/strong>Suspiros<\/em>\u00a0from\u00a0Daniel, Me Est\u00e1s Matando<\/strong><\/a>. Es un disco que definitivamente escuchar\u00edas en Gema mientras te tomas un cafecito. Adem\u00e1s de ser un grupo que le ha dado una refrescada a los boleros de toda la vida, boleros que escuch\u00e1bamos con nuestros pap\u00e1s y que hoy volvemos a escuchar nosotros. Eso es Gema: un sorbo de nostalgia en el presente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
