Design
Discover design through experts
Kre-ate offers a complete food and beverage design service that encompasses everything from spatial mapping, concept development to detailed scheme design.
By completing a comprehensive assessment, we guarantee that form and function are integrated seamlessly creating kitchens, bars and operational spaces where form and function are balanced and where guest experience and operational flow evolve as one cohesive concept.
We work at the intersection of architecture, interiors and hospitality, collaborating closely with architects, interior designers, consultants and key stakeholders to deliver fully coordinated foodservice and catering equipment design packages.
Working across all RIBA stages, our approach is adaptable, supporting clients wherever they are on their journey.

This is design
Design is fundamental to the ethos of our company, serving as the cornerstone of creativity and functionality in every project we undertake.
Site Analysis
Kre-ate provides support for both new and older Spacer installations. As demands for energy efficiency, productivity, and addressing operational shortcomings grow, maximising current resources becomes increasingly challenging. We offer site reviews to provide insights into innovative methods and guidance on essential equipment replacements or rearranging current equipment for better effectiveness. Our comprehensive surveys and assessments support improvements, regardless of budget.

Sustainable Design
Sustainability is embedded within our Food & Beverage design approach. Through intelligent planning, thoughtful equipment specification and efficient operational design, Kre-ate helps clients reduce energy consumption, minimise waste and support the hospitality industry's commitment to a more sustainable future.
Working alongside BREEAM and other sustainability frameworks, we consider the entire lifecycle of an F&B operation—from the sourcing of materials and equipment to operational efficiency and end-of-life strategies. Our approach prioritises energy and water-efficient equipment, responsible material selection, and spatial planning that optimises workflow, reduces resource consumption and enhances operator wellbeing.
By integrating sustainable principles into foodservice design from the outset, we create hospitality environments that are environmentally responsible, commercially resilient and built to perform for the long term.
Manufacturing & Technical Co-ordination
Successful projects depend on a cohesive relationship between custom fabrication, mechanical and electrical systems, joinery, and the overall interior design of a space. It is crucial to establish a smooth integration between functional components and visual attractiveness. By carefully evaluating the materials, intricacies, and processes involved in both manufacturing and adjacent interiors, we can improve functionality while preserving aesthetic unity.

Claire provided an honest, impartial account of what would be required and best for the scheme, working to strict budgets and tricky plan areas. She efficiently provided several design changes within her scope and presented them to the client knowledgeably. Due to her diligence and passion, she was commissioned to look at further areas in the hotel. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Claire again or recommend her to other clients!
