Restaurant Design - Wells Fargo Corporate Cafeteria - San Francisco, CA

Colorful, Cheerful Corporate Cafeteria offers employees quick, value dining and a welcome respite from an office environment.

Challenge: Work in tandem with building architect to create a cheerful, functional employee cafeteria using durable, low-cost finishes with a high-quality look within a vertical boxy space.

Design Solutions:

• Created seating layout along window walls to take advantage of city views and give employees opportunities to interact or eat alone.
• Added uniquely colored and textured finishes which include colored wood grain and nickel-finish plastic laminates, concrete, and environmentally-green recycled glass countertops, automobile-paint red counter supports, and earth-friendly linoleum floors in geometric shapes.
• Achieved a dramatic contemporary look with multi-colored Italian metal and plastic chairs and barstools and floating, angled ceiling panels pierced by oversized fluorescent can lights.
