Identifying the primary issues we as a group saw in current dining solution designs for a constantly-changing COVID landscape

How

The twists, turns, in's & out's of our design process from our 1st full iteration concept, eventually leading us to our 2nd full iteration concept:

A design & consultancy firm aimed at providing restaurants with tailored solutions to maximize their financial viability, while designing for flexible COVID-safety measures in the context of their established culture & atmosphere. We want each of our client's customers to still receive an experience authentic to the local businesses they know & love.

518 Craft

A self-cleaning table with swiveling, modular tabletop functions & built-in pop-up ad/signifier sign to significantly reduce the amount of time staff spends on between-party cleaning & constant guideline communication with incoming patrons.

Bootlegger's on Broadway

A serving slide that provides a fun, safer option for outdoor social dining events by removing shared air spaced between patrons and staff.

A portable UV-Light disinfectant station to provide easy, safe cleaning of shared objects for lawn-game activities, such as corn-hole bags, lawn bowling pins, etc., for a socially-distanced outdoor dining event.

Little Peck's

A capacity monitor to easily present vital information, procedures, guidelines and more on a digital display to incoming customers. The digital display connects to two compact sensors meant to attach to the entrance of the establishment to track the number of incoming & outbound individuals in the café at a time.
