The Chipotle located in midtown manhattan has a clear sense of direction and many users who travel alone

or with one more person.

The linear counter placement directly creates a linear circulation

Every element such as lighting,seating and handrails thereforefollows the gravitiy pull to the back of the restuarant

Mcdonald’s located in midtown manhattan displays awareness of sustainability in material as well as having a clear layout

The large red dotted circle showsthe point of the gravitational pull.This multi triangular system is a result of placing a linear counter at the back, on the opposite side of the enterance and exit.

Irving Farm Coffee located in one of the most busy transportation hub provides the fastest circulation as well as the strongest gravitationtowards the counter

Lighting, high porosity and low privacy are the main factors that complete this design

It is a simple solution for a high foot traffic location

Naya Express located in midtown manhattan presents the most clear layout design which controlls the speed of the traffic effectively

The counter placement is located directly opposite of the enterance and there is only one area of seats

Through simple organization of the layout, it creates a high visibility towards the counter which in turn has a stronger gravitational pull

These fast food & fast casual restuarants are similiary organized by carefully controlled elements that determine its title: fast food or fast casual?

COUNTER : represents food creates focus creates direction

LIGHTS: determines privacy creates path determines speed- bright=fast pace dim= slow pace

PARTITION: creates direction organizes traffic provides privacy

SEATING: determines visibility determines privacy: -single= private -group=low privacy

MATERIAL: determines type of audience determines the speed according to the temperature of the color suggests sustainability awareness

Utilizing these elements in the design, these restaurants successfully create practical, and a strong connection from their food with design

The strongest element that Chipotle can add is a clear focus on the service counter that effectively connects to food, people and transitory environement.
