Need inspiration?

If you’re an independent retailer looking for an interior to reflect your business or brand and not guided by corporate design, consider a fitout with maximum flexibility and efficiency to change with the times. If you are a franchisee, we can help you meet specifications and design guidelines.

 

Hospitality Design

Specialist hospitality design stimulates more than the appetite!


The Ruth Newman Architect team are specialists in designing restaurants, cafeterias, cafes and small coffee shops. No project is too big or too small. Hospitality design requires a firm understanding of food preparation and the regulatory requirements of a commercial kitchen.

We will work closely with you to understand your needs and budget and incorporate that into a fresh and inviting space that promotes efficient and safe work practices while delivering the ambience required to enhance the dining experience.

From ventilation to kitchen workflow

Ruth Newman Architect can manage every aspect of your project from managing ventilation and odour control right through to ensuring efficient kitchen design and workflow. Our projects maximise floor space ensuring you are able to accommodate the desired number of patrons – while adhering to fire and council restrictions.
