by Kunal Joshi content writing

When it comes to restaurant interior design Dubai, the space requirements of the restaurant must be given utmost priority. The following are some of the essential features that can heighten the efficiency of any restaurant design and floor plan:

a.       Human comfort: as far as an indoor space is concerned, human comfort is depends on factors such as thermal comfort, indoor air quality, lighting, acoustic comfort, etc. the design should have sufficient space for comfortably sitting, standing, walking-in, walking out, etc. each customer should have comfortable persona space

b.       Thermal comfort and indoor air quality: restaurants have a high internal heat gain, especially in kitchens, due to cooking, lighting, electrical equipment, and the number of clients. HVAC (heating ventilation and air conditioning) forms a key part of a functional restaurant design.

c.       Lighting: the lighting should be aimed at facilitating the occupants to work and move around safely. The lighting should not only cater to our visual needs, but also safety and security. When designing lighting for a restaurant, the challenge lies in understanding under what circumstances certain visual conditions might be better than others and to use that knowledge to create lighting systems that boost overall performance and human comfort. There are three catogories of light in restaurants - Ambient, Accent, and Mood Lighting.

d.       Acoustic: the overall acoustic quality of space is affected by conversations of people, background noise or sound, and the architectural design of the restaurant. Typically, restaurants have carpeted floors, soft furnishings, and upholstered chairs tablecloths and curtains which have sound-absorbing qualities. Recently, there has been a trend of high ceilings and hard surfaces, which are known to produce excessive room echo.

e.       Optimum utilization of seating and smooth circulation: the space design plan should be such that the servers can move quickly with food and beverages in the restaurant and the guests should also be able to move in and out the restaurant freely. The floor plan should provide enough elbow room to customers. The restaurant floor layout should focus on the comfort and enjoyment of customers while maintaining an efficient circulation pattern. So now you know just having a well-planned menu design Dubai is not enough to attract customers.

Safety concerns: according to restaurant design standards, tables should be placed in a way so that there’s enough room between them. For instance, in case of an emergency, if there’s a need to evacuate the building, having clear pathways to the exits is very crucial. Full paths should be built so that employees and guests don’t end up tripping or hurting themselves as they navigate your dining room.
