Designing Bars That Set the Scene

At Rische Group, we believe a great bar is built on more than just drinks and service – it’s an experience shaped by thoughtful, creative interior design. We specialise in designing distinctive bar interiors that capture the imagination, enhance brand identity, and make every visit memorable for your guests.

Your Vision, Brought to Life

Every bar has its own story and atmosphere. Our experienced interior designers work closely with you to understand your vision, target audience, and operational needs. Whether you’re launching a new venue or reinventing an established favourite, we blend creativity and practicality to deliver spaces that truly stand out.

What Sets Our Bar Interior Design Apart?

  • Bespoke Concepts
    We don’t believe in off-the-shelf solutions. Every project begins with a blank canvas, ensuring your bar’s design is tailored to your unique brand and clientele.

  • Immersive Experiences
    We design spaces that do more than look impressive – they feel inviting and inspire people to stay longer, come back often, and share their experience.

  • Smart Space Planning
    From optimised bar layouts and seating plans to clever lighting and acoustic solutions, we maximise every square metre for comfort, atmosphere, and efficient service.

  • Material & Finish Selection
    We source high-quality, durable materials and finishes that withstand busy hospitality environments and add a premium feel to your venue.

  • Sustainability in Design
    We’re passionate about responsible design. Where possible, we incorporate sustainable materials, energy-efficient lighting, and eco-friendly practices.

Our Interior Design Process

  1. Discovery & Briefing:
    We get to know your business, ambitions, and the mood you want to create.

  2. Concept Development:
    Our designers produce mood boards, sketches, and 3D visuals to bring ideas to life and help you visualise the transformation.

  3. Design Detailing:
    We refine every element, from custom joinery and lighting to décor, flooring, and feature walls.

  4. Collaboration:
    You’re involved every step of the way, ensuring the final design matches your vision.

  5. Project Handover:
    Our designs are ready for smooth implementation, supported by detailed specifications for a seamless build.

Throughout the process, we provide implementation support including hospitality specification packages, value engineering workshops, site inspections, and design adaptations responding to changing market demands and licensing requirements.

What sets our bar design solutions apart is the powerful combination of cutting-edge technology and human creativity applied specifically to hospitality environments. Our CAD expertise produces precise technical drawings of bar and venue layouts, our SketchUp proficiency creates intuitive 3D spatial models of hospitality interiors, and our advanced rendering capabilities deliver photorealistic visuals showing exactly how venues will look upon completion. This design-to-build approach ensures that what we design can be built within budget and timeline, regardless of whether we’re working on a new cocktail bar, an operating pub facility, or anything in between.
