Design Code/Services/Restaurant Interior

Restaurant interiors that work on a busy night.

We design and build restaurants, cafes, party halls and convention halls. Seating, kitchen flow, light, sound and airflow are planned together, before anyone starts building.

People judge a restaurant twice. First when they walk in, and again on a Friday night when the kitchen is under full pressure and the room still has to work. We plan for both. The seat count, the service route, the exhaust and the lighting are settled on paper long before the first wall goes up.

We have done this for Golden Spoon, a restaurant and party hall in Khulshi, and Milano Express, a cafe and restaurant of 1615 sq ft in Halishahar. On the larger side we built RB Convention Hall in Chandgaon at 12000 sq ft, and Khulshi Convention Hall, both with office space attached. Our head office is in Chittagong and we take projects all over Bangladesh, Dhaka included.

You can hire us for the design only, or hand us the whole job. On turnkey work we buy the materials, run the site and give you back a room that is ready for service, with one team and one contract.

How we work.

01

Site visit and seat count

We measure the space and check ceiling height, electrical load, the gas line and the toilets. Then we ask about your menu, your service style and how many guests you need to seat at once. That seat count decides most of what comes after.

02

Layout before looks

We plan the route food takes from kitchen to table, and the route a guest takes from door to seat to washroom. Milano Express had only 1615 sq ft to work with, so both routes had to be kept short and clear of each other.

03

Drawings, samples and an itemised cost

You get the layout, joinery drawings, ceiling and lighting plans, plus real samples of the floor, the table top and the fabric. The cost is broken down line by line so you can see what to keep and what to trim.

04

Build around your opening date

We work backwards from the day you want to open, with night shifts where the location needs them. Before handover we run the lights, the exhaust and a full service trial with your staff, then close the snag list.

Common questions.

What decides the cost of a restaurant interior?

Size and condition of the space come first. A bare shell needs floors, ceiling, toilets and electrical work that a running restaurant already has. After that the biggest costs are the kitchen equipment and its exhaust, the air conditioning load, how much custom joinery you want, the seat count, and whether finishes are local or imported. False ceiling, fire safety and a generator connection cost real money and clients often forget them. Show us the space and the menu and we will price it item by item. The first consultation is free.

How long will the work take?

A small cafe or a unit that is already finished can move fast. We built the Dazzle showroom in Finlay Square in 7 days. A full restaurant with a new kitchen usually runs from a few weeks to a few months, and the delay is rarely the interior work. Gas connection, electricity load, landlord permission and municipal clearance set the real date, so start those on day one. We give you a realistic schedule with the quote and a weekly update once site work begins.

Do you plan the kitchen too, or only the dining area?

Both, and the kitchen comes first because it decides whether the dining room works. We plan the cooking line, the wash area, the dry and cold store, the staff route and the exhaust, and we do it sitting with your chef or your equipment supplier. If you have already bought equipment, bring the list and the sizes to the first meeting.

Do you do party halls and convention halls as well?

Yes. Golden Spoon in Khulshi is a restaurant with a party hall. RB Convention Hall in Chandgaon is 12000 sq ft with office space, and Khulshi Convention Hall is similar. Halls need a different plan: sound control, a stage and buffet that can be moved for different events, a wide entry that takes a crowd at once, and enough toilets and parking for a full house.
