Lotelito Paybox: restaurant bill box

The project

Lotelito Paybox starts with a simple idea: the details of a restaurant experience still matter when the meal is over. Archicercle designed and manufactured this packaging to present the bill and handle payment, with the aim of bringing a more playful touch to that final exchange.

The solution takes a flat, rectangular form, personalised with Lotelito’s identity. Archicercle’s contribution covered product design and manufacture: a bill box conceived for a specific use at the restaurant table.

The set combines pale, wood-like surfaces with dark outlines and black bands. Across the project views, these bands also appear in a crossed arrangement over the faces of the pieces. The contrast between the pale surfaces and dark elements defines the composition.

One view of the piece in use includes banknotes and coins, a black band and a central slot. This detail makes the object’s purpose clear beyond its exterior presentation: receiving payment in a holder that carries the restaurant’s identity through to the end of the service.

The personalisation includes the Lotelito name and, on some pieces in the set, Licor 43’s graphic identity.
