Have you ever given thought to the eco friendliness of an establishment?
Eco friendly restaurant design focuses on creating such healthy and safe dining ambiences for consumers, with minimum adverse impact on nature.
The qualities of healthy, hygienic and hearty meals should be reflected in the environment in which the food is being served. Eco friendly restaurant design focuses on creating such ambiences for consumers, with minimum adverse impact on nature. One of the key reasons restaurants are creating greener spaces is to obtain the LEED certificate, which is complex, as a range of criteria needs to be fulfilled. Apart from obtaining a recognized verification, restaurateurs are implementing the economical sustainable growth because of its rewarding nature in terms of promoting the authenticity of a brand image and cost reduction in the long run. The journey of sustainability in restaurant design may not have a definite ending point in fact a steady progression towards each step that is taken.

Optimum Management of Waste
As much of importance is laid on the green infrastructure, a systematic approach that dictates the design curriculum is of vital importance. The vision is to foresee the industrial waste being recycled if not discarded appropriately yet within the reach of the quality of sustainability. Reduction of limited natural resources such as energy and water are important factors within the design management.

Efficient use of energy
Focus on Energy consumption is at the forefront of the hospitality industry, as the usage of energy.

Earn a gold star
Yet, an engaging step towards an energy efficient future is to purchase energy star appliances. Being approved by energy star brings you a step closer on the journey of a sustainable future in comparison with the average kitchen equipment that consumes energy more than it should. Initial cost being high, energy star products are always a smart idea in the long run. 
Restaurant energy costs per square foot are significantly higher than in comparable commercial buildings. It is advisable that the users perform a thermostat check on the equipment to make sure it functions to the right temperature as energy star puts it.

Lighting and Electricity usage
Lighting plays a huge role when it comes to light fixtures, signage or other decorative elements in a restaurant. Energy star light fixtures are designed to reduce the energy and the heat that it produces by 75 per cent, which can be easily evaluated by the amount you will end up saving in your pocket. Certain types of lighting such as fluorescent, LED is a better option and it is equally important to confirm these fixtures are being illuminated in appropriate terms.
Last but not least, another smart solution towards sustainable urban restaurant design is to incorporate sensors in areas that need to be illuminated only when it’s occupied (Ex: restrooms, refrigerators). It is yet another approach of energy efficiency that dramatically cuts down the unnecessary cost.

Protection of water
The amount of water that is wasted can add up to millions of gallons. Using energy star appliances or low flow faucets contributes in reducing the water consumption. Using sensors that analyse movement or integrating systems of re using the water are ideal ways of approaching sustainability in today’s world. Living in a polluted world where no one is ever ready to take up the responsibility, encouraging employees to use bikes, buses and car pools is the direction to go. What’s more is the initiative of offering special parking slots for hybrid car owners.
The idea of sustainability within the hospitality industry should be seen as a new dimension
of ensuring quality to the consumer where consumerism delve into the design principles of the particular restaurants. And most importantly remember to stay ahead of the game. EU legislation is on its way and it won’t be long before your business is forced – by law – to meet high environmental standards.
