A chain of bistro cafes, by the LBF brand, is set for a launch across the country with the first on breaking ground in Pune. A clear mandate for design being the cafe becomes a leisure space for the target consumer in the age bracket of 20-40 years. The design is to evolve as a parallel with the international chains in the same space and yet with its own distinct look & feel.

Integrated like a streetscape the cafe seamlessly moves in & out of the mall environment creating an informal lounging environment. The cafe counter is central to the experience with long displays of gourmet & savoury foods, ice creams & beverages. Use of special materials including textured wood panel treatments on counters & matt tiled flooring to create a palette for the brand identity. The planning created varied options of seating configuration including quick service tables & cozy corners with indirect lighting to set a mood space. Bollard lighting on the perimeter and suspended lighting on the counters with customised graphic artworks complete the visual experience.
