Some of the most unique, inspiring spaces I’ve seen have
been restaurants around the world. While browsing creative restaurant designs I
noticed some pretty cool trends! Whether
you have a restaurant of your own to decorate or would just like to be inspired
by some beautiful spaces, these are some fun restaurants to look at.

This may not be the most practical type of seating, but it
is certainly unique! I love the look and feel of swinging chairs and I think
sitting in one would make dining a fun experience. I’ve also seen these in
outdoor bars!

There’s nothing quite like natural light, especially considering
most restaurants are dark. The two photos above are so inviting with the open
spaces, high ceilings and natural light.

This kind of seating is popping up in breweries and
restaurants alike. What’s great about oversized tables like these is that
groups of people sit together whether they came together or not. It’s a nice
way to spend a meal!

I love these oversized light fixtures! Not because they
provide any more light than a simple one, but because they make a big statement
in a great way. Plus, there are so many different directions to take this.

Have you ever seen a wooden ceiling like these? They’re warm
and inviting and make for a cozy dining atmosphere.
What unique setups have you seen in kitchens from around the
world? I’d love to hear!
