Bar Design for People Who Think in Profit, Not Just Aesthetics

We Solve Problems Efficiently—with Minimal Risk

✔️ Bar design for speed, bar planning for margin
We streamline layouts that maximize ergonomics, boost sales, and just make sense.

✔️ Smarter bar planning = faster installs, fewer surprises
We manage the process, vendors, and timeline—so you don’t bleed money on delays.

✔️ Bar design with shop-level detail, not guesswork
Our plans speak the language of fabricators, millworkers, and draft system installers—crystal-clear drawings trades can trust.

💬 Real Money, Real Mistakes — and How We Help You Avoid Them

Watch how a simple design decision saved one client over $40,000 a year—and how it could protect your bottom line too:

How Owners Benefit from Our Experience

According to the Freedonia Group, labor shortages, delays, and cost overruns are hitting the hospitality industry hard.

  • ⚙️ Modular Bar Die Systems – We specialize in this method to reduce on-site labor with prefabricated structural components

  • 📐 Steel Framing & Metal Stud Plans – We deliver shop-ready, lightweight steel fabrication drawings

  • 🏗️ Construction Support – We stay involved to help your GC execute the vision

  • ✏️ Detailed Drawings – We go far beyond equipment placement — we plan down to the studs
