Negroni Talk #1 – 4th June 2018
The restaurant at the end of society
Cities are built on their stomachs, with food and architecture intrinsically linked. We design pubs, restaurants and cafes as spaces to eat in but also as social gathering spaces to meet, debate and share culture. As technology increases our access to food delivered to the front door, eateries all over the UK are shutting down. What happens to our communities when local dining disappears? What role can design play to bring people together to break bread?
