I’m getting ready to open a new restaurant and I need a fresh set of eyes to shape the reception and waiting area. The overall vibe I’m pursuing is modern and trendy—clean lines, smart lighting, and a look that instantly tells guests they’re in the right place. I picture neutral tones as the base palette, so textures, lighting accents, and a few statement pieces will need to do the talking rather than bold color. Here’s what I’m after: a full concept for the reception space, including mood boards, detailed floor and reflected ceiling plans, 3-D visualizations or renderings, and a concise materials/finishes schedule so I can hand everything straight to contractors. If there are clever space-saving ideas for queuing guests or a standout host counter design, I’m all ears. I have rough dimensions plus photos of the shell; I’ll share those along with brand guidelines as soon as we kick off. Preferred file types are DWG and PDF for plans and high-resolution JPEG/PNG for visuals. Let me know your expected timeline and how many refinement rounds you include—ideally at least two so we can nail the look. If this sounds like your kind of project, show me samples of similar hospitality work and tell me which tools you’ll be using (AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, 3ds Max, Lumion, etc.). Excited to see how you’ll turn this blank canvas into a contemporary welcome zone that sets the tone for the whole dining experience.
