Book Synopsis Detail in Contemporary Bar and Restaurant Design by : Drew Plunkett
Download or read book Detail in Contemporary Bar and Restaurant Design written by Drew Plunkett and published by Laurence King Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bars and restaurants need to be assertive. Customers tend not to visit them to satisfy basic appetites for food or drink but for the social opportunities. Their interiors need to occupy the imagination of their customers and to whet the appetite for a return visit. The design that gets the formula right will do as much to prolong the life of the business as the products on offer. As this book demonstrates, the conventions and mechanics of eating and drinking influence how bars and restaurants are conceived in different regions of the world. Whatever the final result users are in sustained, intimate contact with the elements of the space they inhabit and detailing must be refined enough, and visually rich enough, to withstand prolonged scrutiny. This book includes a wide range of international projects and for each one there is a descriptive text, colour photographs, floor plans, sections and construction and decorative details. A bonus CD-ROM contains all the drawings as printed in the book, in both EPS and DWG (generic CAD) formats.

Download or read book The Modern Kitchen written by Tim Hayward and published by Quadrille Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The kitchen is the heart of the home – it's where we spend leisure time as a family, where we feed ourselves and where we entertain our friends. The average western family spends more money on the kitchen than they do on a car or a vacation. We fill our kitchens with objects and tools that reflect our needs, tastes and desires. There is nowhere else in daily domestic life where design impinges quite as much as in the kitchen. Every item in the kitchen has its own story. Through 100 familiar objects, The Modern Kitchen maps the progress and development of this functional yet also wildly aspirational space. Why do the Le Creuset casserole dish and the wooden salad bowl exert such a cultural hold over us? Has the accumulation of electrical appliances led us to cook and eat differently? As well as studying the individual objects that have had such a huge impact on the way we live now, The Modern Kitchen examines kitchen design, economics, and gender politics through a series of essays. Embodying notions about class, gender, wealth, and health, the home kitchen and its layout, set-up, and contents, remains a neat illustration of our beliefs, tastes, aesthetics, and aspirations – the portrait of our domestic lives.

Residential Kitchen Design offers a research-based method for both creating new kitchens and remodeling existing ones. It responds to today's lifestyle factors, technology, and house sizes to accommodate clients in the 1990s and into the next century." "This guide updates the concept of kitchen centers presented by Glenn Beyer in the early 1950s, incorporating the current philosophies of universal design and accessibility. Detailed, specific guidelines are provided for successful design of conventional and increasingly popular multiple-cook kitchens. The design process for kitchen renovation projects is included in response to the trend toward housing renovation and rehabilitation." "Specific instructions on implementation are particularly useful. The authors address every design step from needs assessment to the construction phase." "Both a new and a remodeling project are illustrated to demonstrate each step of the application process in kitchen design. Included are extensive graphics that clarify various design methods and solutions to spatial problems that may confront the designer." "Appendices feature a list of design and construction documents required to bring the kitchen concept to reality, tables that assist with lighting design, and sources for additional information on specific products and appliances." "The design method employed makes Residential Kitchen Design as accessible for design newcomers as it is for experienced professionals. It will be a valuable source for interior designers, architects, builders/developers, and kitchen designers."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
