Designing non-residential/office/commercial spaces is certainly very different from designing a residential apartment or house. When creating such a design project, it is necessary to take into account the interests and taste preferences of a large group of people – visitors to the premises. In the HoReCa sphere, design is one of the key conditions for successful business. A poorly made project or its absence can lead to a 50% decrease in profitability or even the closure of an establishment.
From this perspective, restaurant design can be distinguished as a separate group of design projects. In this sphere, it is important not only to provide delicious food to visitors but also to create an unforgettable atmosphere around them. Professional and efficient development of design solutions for the space should help with this. In the conditions of the modern market, a beautiful and memorable interior design is one of the most important conditions for attracting visitors.
STAGES OF CREATING A RESTAURANT DESIGN PROJECT
- Development of the general appearance of the premises in conjunction with the architectural appearance of the building, location, view from the windows, etc.
Formation of the main goals, tasks, and preferences by the customer. Careful measurement of the premises, photo fixation. - Development of technical specifications and, on this basis, the general concept of interior styling.
- Zoning of the premises: public, working, technical. Layout solution: furniture placement, designer solutions, and interior items, coordination of layout and engineering systems (electrical systems, water supply, sewerage, ventilation, heating system).
- Coordination of ceiling design solutions with technical ceilings and systems.
- Calculation of the type, quantity, and location of seating. Development of space geometry, sketches, and further restaurant design. An author’s interior is designed to complete the image of the establishment, make it unique and integral, and forever seal it in the memory of visitors.
- Compilation of a complete package of documents: working drawings, specifications, statements, and an explanatory note.
COST OF A RESTAURANT DESIGN PROJECT
The cost of a restaurant design project is always individual and directly depends on the style of the premises, the area, etc. The stage-by-stage work is subordinated to the general logic of design. However, there are nuances associated with the field of the establishment’s activities. For example, the first stage of developing the concept and forming technical specifications for a restaurant design project may take longer than subsequent ones. This is due to the need for a detailed analysis of the customer segment of the establishment, the age composition, the necessary functionality of the premises, etc. This approach to design allows for the consideration of the maximum amount of information and the creation of an optimal design.
CAFE DESIGN PROJECT
In modern cities, the cost of each square meter is high. Therefore, among the main requirements for designing café interiors is efficient and maximum space usage. Design solutions should be unconventional while still being functional and not overly bulky. Same with restaurant design, the interior design for a café should be memorable first and foremost. The advantages of designing a café are that designers can afford to be more creative, using non-standard space solutions, designer lighting fixtures, and furniture. When designing residential spaces, designers are generally more focused on individual preferences, color perception, and ergonomics. It is also important to consider ergonomics, particularly the convenience of visitors. Among the features of a café interior design project, in addition to developing unique design solutions, the following can be highlighted:
- Attention to visitor traffic and their average length of stay in the café
- Optimization of staff and customer routes
- Selection of table types (their shape, size, type of base, etc.)
- Analysis of the customer segment targeted by the café
An optimal price for the café design project is also an important consideration. As with restaurant design, the cost is always individual and depends on a number of factors.
BAR DESIGN PROJECT
Designing a bar has its own set of features. The main focal point is the bar counter, which should not only be visually appealing but also functional, incorporating the latest technological and modern design solutions. The design project for the bar must take into account factors such as the working hours, format and theme of the establishment, variety of drinks and food, and service type.
So, how can you create an effective original bar project? It’s simple – seek out specialists who can not only organically design the space but also plan everything down to the smallest detail, from the layout to the type of textiles and upholstery. After all, bar design is a complex and multifaceted process that directly impacts the future successful operation of the establishment. Even a small mistake can result in significant costs and harm the reputation of the bar.
Lack of specialized knowledge (or its absence) in the field of bar design can lead to serious consequences. Inconvenient layout, non-ergonomic equipment placement, inefficient space usage, and a plain design are just the beginning of the list. A pendant light hanging too low can be too bright and glaring for visitors. Inadequate ventilation and air conditioning systems can cause drafts or kitchen odors to spread throughout the room, spoiling the establishment’s reputation. Our professional approach can help you select the right lighting, furniture, evaluate equipment needs, consider non-standard design solutions, and match your chosen bar design idea with the potential of your property. All of this ultimately saves your time and project budget.
