Food & Beverage Design


Your Kitchen Has a Boss; It’s Called Your Menu

Before I help you create that memorable experience for your dining and entertaining clientele, I’ll make your boss my boss, too.

Your menu is so much more than just an expression of who you are and the great food and drinks you serve; it’s the blueprint for your restaurant’s brand, its core values, and it’s promises. It’s the cornerstone of your financial success. And when restaurant design is done right, your menu is the boss there too.

The total customer experience, courteous and efficient service, and your stellar reputation are all so important, because that’s what keeps people coming back again and again. They all result from the menu choices you make, a kitchen designed to support your brand, and your grand vision for providing an exceptional experience for your dining patrons.

Nobody Knows More About the Practice of Architecture Than a Practicing Architect

Judges who try, mediate, or arbitrate design and construction related cases have typically been in practice for many years before sitting on the bench, often as attorneys representing both sides of the matter. They are often very familiar with the process, terminology, and techniques used in the process of the design and construction of buildings.

But they are not architects.

And even if they are also architects, the law requires that remain impartial. So they rely on architectural experts to help explain complex design issues and technical construction techniques in plain and simple language that an average juror can understand.
