It goes without saying that the bigger the restaurant space you want, the more expensive it will be. Buying space for your restaurant is no walk in the park and sometimes when you feel like you want to expand the spacing a bit more, you start to regret not having bought a bigger space prior. But, what if we told you that there’s a trick to it? There’s a reason why some restaurants look a lot bigger than they actually are – it’s because they know how to effectively use their space! Here are a few tips and tricks our team at CD Construction have up our sleeves to help you effectively make use of your restaurant space:
Use The Lighting To Your Advantage
If you are wanting to make your restaurant look bigger and more spacious, natural lighting can help you do the trick. The use of natural light brings about the illusion that the space is bigger than it actually is because it mashes the outdoor and indoor environment of the restaurant together. This gives customers the feeling as though they are outdoors because it’s the same lighting as the sun.
Choosing The Right Colour Palette
Colours play an integral part of how the environment of the restaurant looks. For example, if the restaurant’s colour palette consists of darker colours, it gives off a more nighttime feel whereas if the palette was on the lighter side, it looks more bright and a ‘during the day’ atmosphere. Using neutral colours like beige, grey and white are also great if you want to make it look as though your restaurant is bigger.
Making It Functional
Of course, the most important thing about your restaurant’s space is if it is functional or not. If people and employees are able to move freely without barging into other people, the space will automatically appear bigger whereas if everyone is clashing into each other, this is perhaps a sign that you should change the layout of our restaurant.
Know How Much Space You Really Have
Sometimes people will say they don’t have any more space and cannot possibly afford to fit tables anymore but in reality, there are spaces they may not have really looked at. For instance, placing tables and seats in the corner of a restaurant has become increasingly popular because it’s a new style that customers have been intrigued with.
Using The Outdoor Space That You Might Have
Opening up your restaurant and offering outdoor seating areas are one of the biggest hits in today’s modern society because it allows customers to have a preference on whether they want to sit indoors or not. Not to mention, putting a table outdoors is less costly than building more indoor space.
Utilising The Bar For Extra Seating
If your restaurant has a bar, why not take this opportunity to put seats in that area as well? It will allow more customers to come in and feel comfortable as there are seats around.
