2 MAD MEX BAYSIDE
At the time, Bayside was one of the largest restaurants developed by the brand. The project encompassed an extensive brief that included a spacious seating area, a modern point-of-sale (POS) system, an expanded back-of-house (BOH) area, and a completely redesigned façade. The façade, in particular, was a massive and complex undertaking. Striking the perfect balance between client expectations and the requirements of the retail design management (RDM) team proved to be the most challenging yet rewarding aspect of the project, ultimately leading to its success.

Area: 67 sqm
This restaurant in Victoria was a particularly challenging project, as we had to design a seating area within a very limited space inside our tenancy. Despite the constraints, we successfully incorporated all elements from the brief. The result was outstanding, and the design received excellent feedback. The final project not only looks incredible but also maximizes functionality and aesthetics within the compact space.
