Real Estate, Brand Creation & Brand Strategy Consulting India: Trends in Hospitality Design - I-AM Brand Identity Design in Mumbai, India

At I-AM we’re very mindful of current trends that resonate well with consumers. Food trends, like fashion, come and go and now faster than ever. Everything goes and the offer is vast. Here, we have rounded up some of the most recent trends in hospitality design:

When designing a space, keep in mind the 3 EX’s: Experience, Experimentation and Excitement

These days, dining out is about offering an experience. Before we start designing a restaurant or a bar space we need to storyboard the customer experience like a film and think about the key touch-points within that space. Designing a restaurant is all about creating a holistic experience to capture the senses.

Cultural influences in food and drink are reflected in design

Overly-themed design concepts are becoming dated. The recent trend is all about using an eclectic approach to design and subtle references.
Andean and Asian cuisine are currently at the forefront of this trend. Therefore interesting patterns, little bursts of bold colours and textures are key standout design features.
Exposed brickwork is a prevalent design feature of this trend and was utilized by our designers in the interiors of fast-casual restaurant Pizza Union: a spectacular wood fire oven serving as the focal point of the design, alongside the marble counter and open kitchen, which adds a theatrical element.

Healthy does not equal boring

From cold-pressed kale juices via chia seeds, to superfoods. The health food market is booming.
Green is the new black when designing for health-led restaurant concepts. Ethos restaurant on Eastcastle Street, designed by us here at I-AM is a perfect example
Senior Designer, James Coates said: “Ethos is a non-meat restaurant. The appeal of clean and fresh food is reflected into the design of the interiors, starting with the clean colour palette: subtle tonal values, crafted design elements and eye-catching features are all part of the story.”

Comfort

From humble toast and eggs, to authentic homemade pasta, the culinary trend of offering few, but well made dishes in appropriate surroundings is spreading.
In these spaces, it’s all about utilising tactile materials including warm lighting and comfy seating, to create familiar surroundings.
For example, fast-casual Italian restaurant Scarpetta introduced a rich and varied palette including timber flooring, leather seating and exposed copper piping. These features add warmth and texture to the contrasting black and white tiles of the serving counter. The result is a space that is industrial, yet rustic.
