Designing The Restaurant Experience – Rescheduled

This event has been rescheduled with a new date and location.

Boston is home to a diverse (and delicious) restaurant scene, where dining choices range from old favorites to the latest culinary hot spots, from nationally known chains to local chef-owned bistros, and from the award-winners of Boston and Cambridge to the gourmet gems in the suburbs north, west and south of the city. While food is most often the main driver of visits, it’s the overall experience that brings in the ratings and continues to pique interest.

Join AIGA Boston as we speak with experts in restaurant design to find out what goes into creating the restaurant experiences that are so widely shared and admired. Our panelists will give lightning talks, spanning branding, architecture, interior design, and more. The presentations will be followed by a short Q&A session led by our moderator.
