Ideas for creating a cafe design +75 interior photos
The design of the cafe complete with the quality of service and delicious cuisine creates the mood of visitors. A beginning restaurateur needs to work out the design of his establishment with special attention. Naturally, any cafe is designed for a certain category of guests. Business people will not be comfortable in the interior with futuristic motifs, and young people will quickly get bored in a luxurious classic setting. However, the design project of the cafe should be so high-quality that even an occasional visitor becomes a regular. The main goal that the designer should pursue is the creation of an unusual, original institution, in which comfort will nevertheless remain. People come to the cafe to relax. The more pleasant and comfortable the pastime in the institution will be, the more often they will return to it. Let's talk about the most important thing - the styles that embody in the interiors of cafes.
Stylistic diversity opens up scope for imagination. The design is perhaps the most pleasant and at the same time time-consuming stage before the official opening of its own institution. The design will include a “delicious” interior and a tempting exterior. The interior decoration consists of the layout of individual rooms and areas, decoration, lighting, color scheme and decor, which style is polished. To begin with, it is worth determining what category of people your institution will be designed for. Cafes are classified into the following types:
Coffee house. The preparation of an invigorating drink in it is a priority.
A small cafe. It offers a "full" menu, but the dimensions of the room do not allow to accept a large flow of visitors.
Luxury Cafe. Such establishments almost reach restaurants and receive mostly elite visitors.
The pub. An institution with a night mode of operation, where guests can skip a glass or two.
Cafeteria. The menu of the establishment is the same as in the cafe, but it works on the principle of self-service.
Budget fast food. A very popular option, where they serve "junk" food. The name "fast food" replaced the domestic buffet.
Cafe with a healthy diet. Designed only for a certain category of people. The actual location of such cafes near sports complexes.
Sports bar. It daily hosts live football, hockey broadcasts. Guests are offered alcoholic drinks.
Art cafe. A youth institution that hosts creative personalities where they can discuss art.
Canteen. Spacious cafe, which daily receives a large flow of visitors.Usually located near large enterprises, office centers, banks. On weekends, celebrations are often organized here: banquets, weddings, anniversaries.
Lobby bar. The facility is located in the lobby of hotels. Designed for visitors and tourists. The cuisine is usually multinational.
Recently, more and more multifunctional cafes have been opened, which are more like small restaurants. Among the style diversity, the following interior solutions can be noted:
Loft or noble industrial. Style is now experiencing a real "boom". Its business card - brick walls are used in half of the fashionable interiors of houses and public institutions.
Retro. The direction is relevant in narrow circles of connoisseurs of antiquity. Usually reproduce the atmosphere of American jazz clubs, which were visited by ladies in fur coats and gentlemen with ties. Such cafes gather a bohemian audience that can plunge headlong into a new world of luxury and elegance.
Russian. In this style, the main room is styled as a tavern with massive wooden furniture and a horseshoe above the entrance (fortunately, as the saying goes).
Fusion The direction is a stylistic potpourri. Fusion is classified as more modern eclecticism. Style allows you to design a cafe unusual, but comfortable. A complex interior solution will attract visitors from the category of “informals”.
Country. A rustic style that is simple. It allows the owner to save on decoration, but at the same time to design the room in an original way.
Provence. A classic of the French heartland is characterized by lightness and grace. For decoration, they use old furniture, which will look appropriate and organic in such an interior.
Chalet. The direction arose on the alpine slopes. It uses wood and natural materials. The facade is decorated with panoramic windows, and a fireplace will become a special sign of comfort.
Eco style.Modern man is drawn to everything natural, therefore, the proximity to nature is also emphasized in the interior. For example, the central hall can be decorated with wooden decks instead of chairs, and on the walls, the composition of the branches will act as the main decor.
Disco style. Suitable for those who are nostalgic for the crazy 80s. The atmosphere of the cafe will be flashy and challenging using bright colors and posters with music bands that were popular in those days.
Empire. The direction is distinguished by grace. In the decoration using floral ornaments, floral patterns. The furniture is neat on twisted legs, decorated with handmade carvings. The room is decorated with stucco.
Modern. The style is characterized by lightness and unobtrusiveness. The interior is dominated by pastel colors and natural materials. The direction has taken an intermediate position between luxurious classics and laconic modern styles.
Separately, it is worth noting the ethnic style. By styling a cafe for a certain country with national cuisine, the owner will kill two birds with one stone at once:
It will attract people from this state who are missing their homeland to the institution.
It will lure locals who want to taste the exotic.
We often open cafes in the ethnic style of two types:
With interiors and cuisine of neighboring countries: Uzbek restaurants with traditional pilaf, a cafe with nostalgia for Armenia or Ukrainian “huts”, which serve rich borsch and dumplings.
Stylized as an institution of exotic countries for a domestic visitor. These include Greek, Italian, American, Mexican cafes.
Let us dwell on some styles, a detailed description of which will explain the reason for their popularity in the interiors of modern cafes.
In ethnic institutions, it is desirable that the staff speak the language of that country, under the style of which they design the interior. If you match, then in everything.
Classic
In the classical decoration the tree will prevail. It is used both for decoration and furniture. However, these are not rough country wood surfaces, but finely and neatly crafted elements. Textiles use natural, “heavy” fabrics with delicately graceful ornaments. The classic style is not suitable for small rooms (less than 15-20 sq.m.). The problem is that in confined spaces it is difficult to realize so that the direction does not lose some of the charm and luxury. The classic decor is very restrained, the style does not accept the abundance of small details that threaten to turn the interior into bad taste. The ceiling and walls are decorated with stucco, the entrance can be supplemented by an arched arch supported by columns. The main door is painted in noble white color and decorated with a gold handle and carving. Brown, chocolate, olive, golden prevail in the color palette. Also, crystal is used in the decor: glasses, figurines, chandeliers. The classic style is more suitable for the interior of the restaurant.
The design uses simple geometry. Classical space cannot be overloaded with complex configurations.
Modern style
Modern interiors strive for conciseness and simplicity. This is not to say that this style completely abandoned luxury, but it became less catchy and more restrained. The direction was created as opposed to tradition. The colors of the interior are dominated by gray, white, black and accent bright touches: blue, blue, purple. The classic relief was replaced by perfectly smooth surfaces. Of the materials, metal, plastic, natural stone and brick are preferred. The room is decorated with marble tables, soft poufs and “pears” in the center of the hall, stylish lamps of unusual shapes, bright dishes. You should not forget about catchy shades, as they will help to dilute the general “sterility” of the atmosphere and bring comfort.Also, the room must be decorated with numerous lamps, sconces, ceiling chandeliers. Lighting is developed at three levels, and special attention is paid to point sources of light, which emphasize the advantageous aspects of the interior.
Minimalism
Minimalism is characterized by simplicity in design and an almost complete absence of decorative elements. A guest from the east came to us a couple of decades ago and gained a foothold in the interior design, it seems like for many years. Style loves freedom, large spaces that seem even more spacious due to light. However, so that the room does not give the impression of a continuous canvas, it must be zoned. The use of screens or decorative partitions between tables is relevant. Visitors will have the opportunity to delimit their personal space, and at the same time remain part of the common room. In the palette of colors, primacy is given to white. The color of purity is emphasized by gray, black, blue, yellow. The decoration uses stone, brick, wood, plaster. Surfaces of materials are not deliberately processed to emphasize their naturalness. Also, the style is characterized by an abundance of glass, in which rare decorative elements are performed. Minimalism adheres to simple lines and shapes, excluding any "geometric" experiments.
Marine Theme
Marine style is considered a favorite option for interior design in country houses on the beaches. Cafes, which are usually scattered on the promenade for the services of vacationers, also give preference to this direction. In cities where they only dream of the south before their holidays, a place decorated in a marine style will cause pleasant nostalgia and help to truly relax, as during a good rest. A quartet of tones is used in the hue palette: green, blue, blue and white. In their strong company, the brown colors of the wood of the deck board and steering wheels pour in.The upholstery “strip” is traditionally present in the upholstery of furniture and textiles. In the decor you can use the anchor and, ships in bottles, spyglasses, navigation aids, sails, lifebuoys, tackles, falling from the ceiling. The original solution will be the design of the doorway under the shape of the helm, the "spokes" of which will diverge to the sides on the walls. Windows are made small, like on ships. One of the accent walls is covered with murals depicting an old map of the world or islands with treasures. The drawing is printed on a “sheet” with charred edges on paper that has turned yellow from time to time. Some restaurateurs go further and embody the theme of pirates in certain areas of the cafe. For example, the VIP-hall is decorated with massive chests with artificial gold, cages with living parrots and old lanterns in the role of shades.
East style
Oriental-style cafes look unconventional and bewitching. In interior design, soft, diffused lighting is necessarily developed that gives warm light. The floor is tiled with ornate patterns. Sophisticated ornament is one of the main features of the style that is used in almost all surfaces. Tiles are partially covered with soft rugs. Seats are low, always decorated with numerous pillows. In oriental cafes, as a rule, guests are offered to smoke a hookah. It is more convenient to do this in separate rooms, which are separated from the common room by translucent curtains. Doorways are decorated with arches with characteristic arches having a sharp, elongated tip exactly in the middle. The room is decorated with a large number of round lamps that hang from the ceiling at different levels. In the color scheme, preference is given to shades of red, brown, blue.
Italian style
The Italian style has retained many features of the Baroque, which at one time gained wildly popularity in this country.Brown, olive, terracotta, cream, orange, yellow, brick prevail in the palette of shades. The decoration uses a combination of relief stucco, rough stone and solid wood. Moreover, the varieties of the latter are chosen noble to emphasize the light luxury of the interior. The interior design uses massive, low furniture, which is decorated with upholstery with floral patterns. As an alternative, you can choose light wicker chairs instead of chairs. On the walls hang collages of photographs. An important element of the decor can be unprocessed ceiling beams and props, which will also serve as conditional boundaries of the combined zones. Textiles chosen are richly decorated with patterns. Tables are usually covered with checkered tablecloths. The decor uses indoor plants, wicker elements, wine bottles that are carried outside the bar.
Japanese style
Japanese style is an integral part of the oriental. He retained its basic features, but he himself is not without personality. Interior decoration is relevant in accordance with the canons of this trend for sushi bars and cafes with the same kitchen. The decoration uses wood in light shades. The walls and ceiling are decorated with panels that are used everywhere in the country of the rising sun. The seats are decorated with low tables and mats or chairs without legs. The place is decorated with luxurious imitations of vases of the Ming era, panels depicting sakura blossoms, voluminous flashlights, a path made of flat stones directly on the floor. The interior is decorated in neutral colors: white, black, brown, gray. The windows are curtained with panel curtains made of silk, cotton, linen. Be sure to have live plants in the room.
Rococo
Rococo will be a good option for owners of a subtle artistic taste. In the room, the corners are slightly smoothed, as the style prefers smooth lines. The presence of high ceilings is one of the features of Rococo.The walls are finished with expensive fabric wallpaper with the finest pattern. The lining also uses light wood, ceramic tiles and marble. In rococo, a large amount of stucco is used, which is covered with gilding on top. The windows are curtained with heavy curtains made of natural fabrics with the same floral pattern. The central element of the decor will be a huge crystal chandelier with bulbs installed in the manner of candles. White, brown, wine, turquoise, blue, pink prevail in shades.
High tech
Interiors in hi-tech style are modern in style, however, it will be difficult to find in those who are for the tradition with both hands. For this reason, the high-tech direction will give comfort mainly to the younger generation. This nuance should be taken into account when developing the concept of the institution. In the decoration of walls and ceilings, plastic, chrome and glass surfaces, raw brick and stone are used. Lighting use multi-level, neon-cold. It is better to lay the floor in bulk with a glossy sheen. The furniture is used simple, with strict geometry of lines. In shades, the main ones are gray, white and black. Trinity can be supplemented with lilac, blue, red, blue, yellow, that is, any color that is emphasized by the corresponding backlight. Windows use panoramic. Curtain them with stylish blinds. Art objects in the style of cubism, constructivism, futurism can serve as decor. Dilute the cold, technological environment with indoor plants in square or triangular pots.
Children's Cafe
Some cafes create a separate children's zone where parents can send their children and relax. However, recently, whole establishments that are designed only for kids, a kind of culinary Disneyland for crumbs, are gaining popularity. The central hall is usually divided into three zones:
Common to all children;
Zone for boys.Corner of rest for young pirates, robbers, astronomers, machinists and robots;
A platform for girls where young princesses will find entertainment to their taste.
Any children's cafe should focus not on healthy, but such tasteless food (as most of us thought in childhood), but on confectionery and ice cream. Usually, children are taken to such establishments for some special occasions, so a restaurateur should consider having a mini-banquet hall. Children's cafes are decorated based on fairy tales, with bright decorations on the walls and similar decor. Sometimes they provide for the presence of hosts with entertainment programs that will make the rest of the kids more vivid and memorable.
The restaurateur should also set up a rest corner for parents, that is, those adults who come to look after the young company. The area should be isolated so that children are not disturbed, but with good visibility.
Summer cafe
A summer cafe can be of two types:
A separate institution that works exclusively in the warm season, and closes with the onset of cold weather.
The food court, which is attached to the main institution and offers guests a choice of an additional recreation area.
As a rule, the summer zone is moved either to the backyard of the institution, or directly in front of the facade and the showcase. The terrace is equipped with light furniture. Be sure to have a tent on the roof, which will protect against accidental rains. The summer cafe is decorated with indoor plants in pots, dwarf trees, and curtains in impromptu “windows” that help protect oneself from the wind and the scorching sun.
Hookah
Hookah decoration can be both modern and according to the canons of the classic oriental style. In the first case, smooth surfaces are used in decoration, furniture of strict forms, an abundance of white, neon lights. In the oriental style, tiles and textiles with a lot of subtle patterns are used.The main thing that should be provided for in such an institution is the presence of separate areas where guests can safely smoke a hookah. In some cafes, this service is on the list of additional ones and for visitors who want to let out a couple of smoke rings, create separate places outside the common room.
Karaoke room
Karaoke cafes are more likely to be nightlife. Of course, serious people can come here solely for the purpose of "stretching" the vocal cords, but much more often the scene is captured by guests liberated by alcohol. A large number of the latter are found on Friday and Saturday evenings. The excitement in the karaoke bar will be observed on the eve of the weekend. There are no strict restrictions on the type of interior decoration in the institution. For example, a restaurateur can successfully embody country or Italian style in the decoration. However, the common hall should be designed in such a way that from any point on it visitors can freely observe the scene.
Beer pub
The interior of the beer bar should be conducive to easy communication and a relaxing holiday. The atmosphere in the institutions is often maintained relaxed, contributing to the liberation of visitors. Often they are equipped in the basement. The cafe bar can expand its audience and broadcast sports matches daily. In the interior of the institution, it is recommended to use wood and brick. Shades are chosen from the "natural" range, that is, from tones of brown. The natural atmosphere will favor the use of light alcohol, which will increase revenue.
Design project
Design project can be entrusted to a professional. Restaurateurs who are not constrained by the budget can afford this step. However, newcomers to the restaurant business often refuse the services of a designer. And the question here is not only about saving, but also about the possibility of making the institution copyright, as they say "from and to."If you decide to design a cafe with your own hands, then first you need a pencil, tape measure, paper for drawing and cardboard for the layout. First of all, they carefully measure the room, because each meter will be used in the interior. Then they are transferred to a schematic drawing of the room. Measurements will be needed when choosing furniture and calculating the amount of materials for decoration. Then, in the drawing of the cafe, they begin to outline the approximate location of the furniture. Do not forget to note the working area for staff - the kitchen and the toilet. By the way, the location of the latter should be chosen so that guests from anywhere in the hall can reach it without attracting too much attention. The stylistic picture at the design stage is already densely stuck in the head, so it is simply transferred to paper. Then make a model and grind the situation, eliminating errors.
Bar counter
The presence of a bar is not only an attribute of institutions with the same name. It is installed everywhere, as among guests from any category there are those who want to pass the time with a glass of strong drink. In bars, racks occupy the lion's share of the common room area. In institutions that focus on delicious cuisine, the "alcohol" corner is located on a small platform. Bar counters are designed in accordance with the general stylistic decision, however, they most often become accent areas, the highlight of the interior, against which stand out. They are without fail equipped with high chairs for guests. Spectacular lighting emphasizes the peculiarity of the interior object.
Cafe equipment
By equipping a cafe, they mean a set of technical equipment that ensures its high-quality work. Visitors will see only coffee makers and shakers for whipping cocktails at the bar.Dishwashers, mixers, stoves, ovens, roasters - all this equipment is located in the kitchen area, which is hidden from the eyes of visitors. True, experimental versions have recently come into fashion, where cooks through a glass partition demonstrate the entire process of cooking for guests. Even if the equipment is hidden from visitors, this does not mean at all that you need to save on it. The interior plays a big role, but if in a pleasant environment they serve terrible dishes, nobody will want to return to the cafe. It is more profitable for restaurateurs to purchase equipment comprehensively, that is, a complete set, as sellers offer good opportunities to save. An important part of the interior technology becomes only in high-tech and contemporary style, close to him in spirit.
Conclusion
Restaurateurs always have a lot of trouble associated with the organizational process before opening their own establishments. Depending on how clearly the work of the team is established, the level of service of the institution is determined. However, no friendly service will save the situation when it is unpleasant for a guest to be in a cafe setting. The situation is very sad, since many do not attach much importance to this nuance, limiting themselves to tables of the same type with a pair of chairs that force the entire hall. The interior needs to be developed in detail, taking into account the many nuances. In the design, they often make sacrifices or seek compromises, just like in real life. Only with this approach to business, your cafe will want to not only come back again and again, but also live in it.
The design of the cafe complete with the quality of service and delicious cuisine creates the mood of visitors. A beginning restaurateur needs to work out the design of his establishment with special attention. Naturally, any cafe is designed for a certain category of guests. Business people will not be comfortable in the interior with futuristic motifs, and young people will quickly get bored in a luxurious classic setting. However, the design project of the cafe should be so high-quality that even an occasional visitor becomes a regular. The main goal that the designer should pursue is the creation of an unusual, original institution, in which comfort will nevertheless remain. People come to the cafe to relax. The more pleasant and comfortable the pastime in the institution will be, the more often they will return to it.

It is installed everywhere, as among guests from any category there are those who want to pass the time with a glass of strong drink. In bars, racks occupy the lion's share of the common room area. In institutions that focus on delicious cuisine, the "alcohol" corner is located on a small platform. Bar counters are designed in accordance with the general stylistic decision, however, they most often become accent areas, the highlight of the interior, against which stand out. They are without fail equipped with high chairs for guests. Spectacular lighting emphasizes the peculiarity of the interior object.
Cafe equipment
By equipping a cafe, they mean a set of technical equipment that ensures its high-quality work. Visitors will see only coffee makers and shakers for whipping cocktails at the bar.Dishwashers, mixers, stoves, ovens, roasters - all this equipment is located in the kitchen area, which is hidden from the eyes of visitors. True, experimental versions have recently come into fashion, where cooks through a glass partition demonstrate the entire process of cooking for guests. Even if the equipment is hidden from visitors, this does not mean at all that you need to save on it. The interior plays a big role, but if in a pleasant environment they serve terrible dishes, nobody will want to return to the cafe. It is more profitable for restaurateurs to purchase equipment comprehensively, that is, a complete set, as sellers offer good opportunities to save. An important part of the interior technology becomes only in high-tech and contemporary style, close to him in spirit.
Conclusion
Restaurateurs always have a lot of trouble associated with the organizational process before opening their own establishments. Depending on how clearly the work of the team is established, the level of service of the institution is determined. However, no friendly service will save the situation when it is unpleasant for a guest to be in a cafe setting. The situation is very sad, since many do not attach much importance to this nuance, limiting themselves to tables of the same type with a pair of chairs that force the entire hall. The interior needs to be developed in detail, taking into account the many nuances. In the design, they often make sacrifices or seek compromises, just like in real life. Only with this approach to business, your cafe will want to not only come back again and again, but also live in it.
