APACHE Bar & Restaurant                             

Client's Name: Mr. Sudhakar Shetty

The client had a permit room at the basement of the same premises and he was very clear in his view that the ambience and the design of the ground floor restaurant should be very different than that of the basement.

That was the first motivation of APACHE concept. Further study of the location (i.e. F.C.Road) revealed that the whole area is dominated by young people, and Mr. Shetty had observed that youngsters hesitate to go to the typical bar restaurants; they often go to the discotheques instead. But discotheques are far away and comparatively expensive. Hence there is no choice for the youth than to go to the typical coffee shop.

At APACHE we decided to give the whole experience of a pub or a discotheque without a dancing floor. With DJ playing loud music, colorful interiors, Neon lighting and menu full of Mocktails, Cocktails, Draught beer and fast food, it was an instant hit.

All in all it was the freedom given by the client Mr. Sudhakar Shetty to develop the concept and the faith in designers ability which made it possible to create the award winning design.

Motivated by the success of the APACHE, Mr. Sudhakar Shetty had started another branch of APACHE at Banjara Hills, Chandni Chowk.
