This project is a part of the Andhra Pradesh Government’s effort to develop food related enterprises, through a holistic entrepreneurship cycle. It will cause positive externalities for the tourism and the highlights of the process include the research, final visual communication and business structure, and the entire process behind the spatial design. Being a spatial design student, the intention behind the design is based on the research entirely, keeping in mind the client’s requirements, and the community apprehensions, and the customers’ aspirations. My project includes the design of the parking, landscaping, and the physical, exterior structure. The primary aim of the project is to create an environmentally sustainable restaurant, which fully exploits the natural lighting and ventilation available, while employing rainwater harvesting techniques to recharge the underground water table. The landscape and the restaurant itself will be designed so as to allow for maximum air flow, with ambient vegetation to provide a natural source of shade and cooling. The ambiance of the restaurant will be maintained as relaxed and peaceful as possible, to provide for a more pleasant dining experience. The design will be a blend of the traditional and the modern, due to the mix of local sourcing, and sustainable design philosophy.
