'Beefbar' is a chain of upscale beef butcheries that glamorize the process of chopping meat.
The design of most Beefbar stores was created by architectural firm 'Humbert & Poyet" and reflects how people are meant to interpret the quality of the retailer's meat products. Dark walls and modern seating gives the beef butchery the look of a bar while a large windowed fridge shows viewers the cuts of meat. Workers at this beef butchery chop the meat on circular wooden tables that sit atop marble-like structures -- further contributing to its sophisticated aesthetic.
By glamorizing the process of going to a meat shop and ordering various cuts of meat, Beefbar manages to offer a unique experience for consumers with an eye for design.
