INTERIOR DESIGN
McMillan Pazdan Smith has a full in-house interiors team that offers exceptional experience working with our restaurant clients. We employ an ‘integrated design philosophy’ through interior design, which means that our designers will be involved from the very beginning of the project.
Critical items like wall and floor finishes, shelving, and furnishings are not simply tacked on near the end of the project, but are taken into consideration early to help inform the shape and character of the building throughout the design process. A well-designed finish palette integrates with architecture and furnishings to create a cohesive environment.
Color and finishes are used to create moods of excitement and energy, or to enhance concentration and focus, and support the client’s unique brand. Thoughtful use of materials, textures, and scale create opportunities for wayfinding and signage, enhancing spacial delineation.
