Hi, im a final year interior design student at the university of huddersfield and i am designing a Polish restaurant aimed at British people to give them an introduction to Polish cultures and traditions. (See my previous topic - www.polishforums.com/designing_polish_restaurant-31_18354_0.htm l ) Below are some images of the initial scheme and i would love to get a Polish view on the design. Visual of the bar which has images of Poland and Britain to show the two contries closer together Visual of bar seating. the glass arches give an idea of a vaulted ceiling which are in many Krakow buildings. the flowers are said to represent hospitality in Polish traditions. downstairs is a bar area selling vodka and polish beer. Upstairs dining is for large groups who have never tried Polish food before. Upstairs is an open kitchen so the diners can see the food being prepaired. Wall feature is cut leather in the style of Wycinanki. The stars upstairs are taken from the tradition that the Christmas eve meal is eaten when the first star is in the sky. Open kithen area if any of the details abouve are wrong please let me know, i'v have taken the information from books and web-sites but they are not always 100%. any comments or suggestions would be a huge help, thank you =)

Hello, how interesting! What type of people do you expect to visit your restaurant? Probably mainly the young? The idea of Wycinanki and photographs of Krakow is great. I will add also some Baltic amber, maybe some pictures of important Polish people - Polish pope, Curie, Copernicus etc. Maybe Polish easter eggs? culture.polishsite.us/articles/art344.htmlif I will find something else I will let you know. You may try to search through our main website: culture.polishsite.us/for some inspiration

This must be a modern, high end restaurant you are designing. In the U.S. several of the Polish restaurants are dining room style with a china cabinet with Polish decor (Polish dolls, plates, flags and Polish eagles). Meals can be served family style and not very formal.
