Pizza and Frends, a Surat-based fine-dining restaurant, takes diners on a captivating journey through time, blending the raw essence of the Stone Age with the sophistication of modern design. This unique concept is spread spaciously across two floors, encompassing a total of 3800 square feet.
 
The design embraces a minimalist approach, utilizing a carefully curated material palette. Rustic vitrified floor tiles provide a foundation that evokes the earthiness of the Stone Age. This textural base is complemented by a metal fabricated ceiling, adding a touch of industrial chic. The walls are finished in a rustic manner, further reinforcing the prehistoric theme. Wood plays a pivotal role, bringing warmth and richness to the furniture elements, creating a sense of grounded elegance. To add a pop of vibrancy, statement blue accents are used strategically throughout the space.

A key element of the client's vision was transparency. This is achieved by creating open counters, allowing diners to witness the culinary artistry firsthand, from the initial stages at the coffee counter to the live pizza preparation and finally, the presentation of Italian delicacies on the mezzanine floor.
 
Lighting plays a crucial role in enhancing the various zones of the restaurant, creating a captivating atmosphere. The strategic use of light helps to define different areas while maintaining a cohesive feel.
