When it comes to designing theme restaurants, a designer and consultant can dovetail the layout with décor in order to bring the underlying theme centre stage. A vision is needed which should be shared by the owner, the designer and architect for the final acceptability by the guest. Some tips on how to go about it and what to remember while doing so.
Planning
After providing space for basic essential back-up facilities for kitchen & engineering services. A ratio has to be planned between the area required for kitchen and restaurant.
This is determined according to the concept and cuisine of the restaurant. Area required for Indian, Chinese, Multicuisine Fine Dining, Multi-cuisine Fast Food Restaurant or any other speciality restaurant would all be different.
Having firmed up the area required of the kitchen, the location should be ideally on the opposite side of the entrance with a rear approach/access for services and staff entrance/exit.
Restaurant Plan & Design
First requirement is to consider a concept that has to be fitted into an existing site. One needs to consider all existing elements that would reciprocate to the design requirement.
Visual Form: The concept once realised, should be transformed into reality, by taking the existing situation and all elements to the advantage. Few Hindrances which disturbs the overall arrangement may be modified or eliminated, if necessary. (in consultation with an appropriate engineering expert).
Having got the site to design/ plan, it may be worth noticing the surroundings that could in any way directly or indirectly, functionally or visually give any enhancement to the quality of design.
