design that drives sales \u2013 how interior design affects what guests order and how long they stay\" class=\"wp-image-2651\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A caf\u00e9 is one of the most sensitive business formats there is. Margins are thin, rents are often high in prime locations, and competition is increasing. Every decision that affects sales matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interior design is one of those decisions. It may sound unexpected that interior design should influence what guests order. But it is well documented that it does: environments that are comfortable and inviting drive longer visits and more orders. Environments that are stressful or impersonal drive guests out faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-plus-font-size\">Seating design and how long guests stay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a fundamental tension in caf\u00e9 design: you want guests to stay longer and enjoy themselves, because that creates a vibrant and inviting atmosphere and drives more orders. But you also need seat turnover to keep revenue up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A mix of seating types gives you control. Bar seating along a row of windows drives faster turnover for solo seating. Soft sofa groups and round tables for company drive longer stays and social consumption. Having only one of these formats limits flexibility and your ability to optimize for different times of day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-plus-font-size\">Location of the cash register and bar counter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The location of the bar and cash register affects the flow of guests and what guests are exposed to when they order. A well-placed bar with clear queuing logic and full exposure of the pastries and menu board means that guests make purchasing decisions in a calm environment, not in a stressed state in front of a closed glass case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The placement and lighting of the display is a sales tool. The baked goods should be visible, look good and be properly lit. This increases impulse purchases without requiring a word from the staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-plus-font-size\">The atmosphere that stays with the guest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The cafes that people recommend are the ones they remember. And they remember them for the feeling, not because the coffee was a specific percentage better than the competitor&#039;s. The feeling is created by a combination: music that is at the right level, the aroma of freshly ground coffee and freshly baked goods that greets you at the entrance, lighting that creates just the right amount of intimacy without being too dark for reading. These are design decisions, not random outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-plus-font-size\">Social media and photogenicity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Caf\u00e9s are the restaurant category that thrives on social media images the most. A design that is cohesive, aesthetic, and offers at least one element worth photographing \u2013 a beautiful window light, a well-designed coffee cup against the right background, a standout interior detail \u2013 provides a constant flow of organic marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It doesn&#039;t require the entire caf\u00e9 to be a photo location. It requires one or two elements that are well thought out for that very purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-plus-font-size\">The change in light during the day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A caf\u00e9 often has a morning service, a lunch service and an afternoon service with quite different characters. This is an argument for dimmable lighting that can be adjusted throughout the day. More light early in the morning for focus and alertness. A little warmer and dimmer in the afternoon when people are looking for relaxation or a longer conversation. It&#039;s a simple technical move with a big effect on the experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-plus-font-size\">Outdoor dining and summer marketing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Sweden, outdoor seating is a seasonal window with great revenue potential. A well-designed outdoor seating communicates outwards, draws guests from the street and makes a positive impression that extends into the autumn and winter months in the memory. This requires furniture that can withstand the weather, lighting that works at dusk and a well-defined area facing the street. It should look like an active choice, not like you have thrown out a few chairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you planning to open, renovate or reposition your caf\u00e9?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please fill out the form below with your name, email address, and a message about where you are in the process.
