Restaurant Interior Design
what’s a good computer program to use for designing restaurant interior and floor plans?
Visual CAD or any full CAD program is the standard for designers until something better comes along. They can be used for visual layouts or even blue prints. Training for one of these programs is pretty intensive. Most learn these programs to land jobs with design or architect firms.
A good architect can work of even a pencil sketch of your own. You’re not going to find an “easy to us” inexpensive program to help you with a floor plan layout. You should really be using an architect anyways. They are familiar with building codes in your area and will see plumbing electrical and HVAC needs that you will not. I would suggest using an architect for any project you’re serious about.

New Interior Design: Collidoscope $19.99 The book is designed to give a stimulating idea of the current direction of international interior design by Nigel Coates, one of the foremost practitioners in the field. The author has selected approximately 30 international designers whose work he thinks is especially interesting. The book will then present a selection of work by these designers in such a way that the relations between different designers (both the differences and similarities) are brought out as well as broader themes in current interior design. While each project selected will be featured over a series of pages, the same project may crop up at various other points through book. The purpose of this is to draw comparisons between each project by letting them cross over into one another’s territory. Hence ‘Collidoscope’, the provisional title of the publication. As such, it should work both as a sourcebook with reference to current tendencies in design and to the ideas that underpin them. It will foreground the designers yet raise challenging differences and overlaps between them. |
