The restaurant boom of the last two decades has significantly increased the volume and diversity of dining establishments in major cities. As consumer expectations rise, restaurants have evolved into spaces that offer more than just food; they serve as public venues where urbanites express their identities. With shrinking living spaces, people are increasingly opting to dine out, using these experiences to define their social selves. Modern technology has heightened cultural awareness, reflected in the rich variety of food and design found in contemporary restaurants. Dining out has become as much about entertainment as it is about nourishment. Restaurants now feature designs ranging from cozy bedroom-like settings to Arabian-inspired spaces and futuristic environments. The book showcases the most inspiring and beautiful restaurant designs worldwide, celebrating spaces crafted to entice diners and spark imagination. Following a brief history of restaurant design, it categorizes designs into Global, Retro-Pop, Modern Classics, High Concept, and New Baroque. Notable designers such as Christian Liaigre, David Rockwell, and Philippe Starck are featured, showcasing a range of dining environments from the modern elegance of Craft in New York to the quirky charm of London’s Les Trois Garçons, appealing to every mood and taste.
