MEZZANINE FLOOR PLAN
The ‘Desert style’ is most noted for its abundance of desert botanicals and nuetral tones. The use of arched openings and small carved out arches in the interior along with sleek and neutral toned furnitures are the major features of the design. Also textured surfaces have been used to resemble the grain texture of sand. The desert landscape beneath the mezanine floor adds to the overall feel of the restaurant.
