Tribal Tiled Eateries

This Themed Restaurant Design is Distinctly South American

— June 11, 2014 — Art & Design
If you love South American culture and all its tribal colors and patterns, this themed restaurant design will be right up your alley—and even if you’re not an enthusiast of its motifs and designs, you’ll still fall in love with this place. 

Looking more like a bright ceramic store than a restaurant, Llama is a South American-themed restaurant designed by Danish studios BIG and Kilo Design. And it got it just right with its vivacious creation. Located in Copenhagen, the space is completely covered with brightly-colored patterned ceramic tiles—whether it be on the the walls, floor or stairs.

Originally an unused basement, the architects wove their magic to make it what it looks like now.

“The restaurant is divided into four main spaces, you enter the foyer space which is a double height room with a giant green wall, a glass montré with south American artifacts and a small cocktail bar,” say the designers.


Trend Themes
1. South American-themed Restaurants - Opportunity for restaurant owners and designers to create unique immersive spaces that transport customers to South America through colorful patterns and artifacts.
2. Patterned Ceramic Tiles in Design - Trend in using intricately designed ceramic tiles to create a strikingly vivid atmosphere for commercial and residential spaces.
3. Revival of Tribal Motifs and Designs - Rising demand for incorporating unique and exotic motifs in interior design and fashion, with tribal patterns and colors making a comeback in the mainstream.
Industry Implications
1. Hospitality Industry - The use of bold, intricate and tactile design materials and motifs can create an immersive and memorable food experience for customers who are looking for something different from a regular dining experience.
2. Interior Design Industry - Designers can leverage the bold and colorful nature of the South American-inspired interior design to create visually stunning interiors and functional spaces that inspire cultural curiosity.
3. Tile and Surface Industry - Tile and surface manufacturers can experiment and innovate new ceramic technologies and design formats to meet the demands for intricate and richly detailed surface designs in interior and exterior applications.
