Good Day I am starting a new restaurant. I have booked 2 floors. The Ground Floor will be a general restaurant where the chefs will be working, with some sit in ares. The top floor will be more of a lounge dining area with a bar. I want to do the interior design for both places, to check how many couches, chairs, tables etc that are needed. This will also assist to do a presentation to the land lord and to my intended funder. I can forward more pictures via email.
