Restaurant & Bar Design Week
(London, UK)
The people behind the projects
The ideas shaping the industry
The concepts driving the conversation
Attended by international industry leaders and creative visionaries, Restaurant & Bar Design Week is an opportunity to hear from those behind today’s projects and to explore the issues defining tomorrow’s.
This year, following the July launch of our short film ‘Dining on Design’, we are continuing with the theme of exploring the unique intersection between high-end cuisine and hospitality design with a series of events that make up this year’s Restaurant & Bar Design Week.
Spread throughout London and set across four days, the programme includes panel discussions and roundtables, as well as invite-only networking events, that allow the global design and hospitality community to strengthen existing relationships and build new ones.
The Week culminates in the Restaurant & Bar Design Awards ceremony at Florattica where the overall winners will be announced.

In Pursuit of Silence
Designing for a hospitality experience involves more than focusing only on visual appeal. With customers and designers ever more aware of the importance of great acoustics, we discuss why acoustics are so important to the guest experience, and who is leading the innovation in design and solutions.

Lighting the Senses
We often think of the aesthetic concept of an F&B space as the most critical part of the design. Few would argue with this. But sight is only one of our senses. To have a unique sensory experience, surely all the senses need to be considered? How does this affect how we design? Do we even consider the sounds, smell and touch that we are to encounter? By invitation.
