Client’s Brief
To create a smart restaurant for a business hotel in an upcoming industrial destination. Restaurant should be the place where the surrounding executives would meet for business and entertainment.
Design Approach
Located in a developing industrial area, this restaurant is part of a business hotel. The restaurant has to cater to budget conscious and product conscious guests. Therefore two sections, AC and Non AC were created. The transition from one space to the other was managed in a seamless fashion using similar forms and material but with different color schemes. The layout is very functional and allows smooth circulation of staff-guests-services. The overall ambiance is created using metal CNC cut custom light fittings set off against a 3D design wall made using fabric. The AC section has a specially designed wall mural / design element using multiple layers of MDF cut using CNC machines.
Materials and Sensitivity –
Both sections use vitrified tiles of the same color. Veneer finished wooden false ceiling elements accentuates the grade of the restaurant creating appropriate bouncing of light to soften the visual effects. Spot lights used to light up guest tables and highlight the fabric wall panels. The intervening columns are clad in back painted glass to match the color theme of the space. This adds to the feeling of sophistication and also continues the selection of material to allow ease of maintenance and longer life spans. The use of form and materials was such that the area could be free of maintainence,and at the same time have a very contemporary feel to the whole place. Bright colours , lacquered glass, S.Scustomized light fittings,wooden ceilings, fabric panel as visual relief as well as acoustic purpose to reduce any noise from road has been effectively used.
