Blending Classic and Contemporary

CDI Solutions is proud to unveil Dough Nyguyner’s Bakery project, which artfully merges classic charm with modern style to create a welcoming and cozy atmosphere. This thoughtful renovation provides a unique experience for each visitor, blending traditional aesthetics with contemporary design elements. The result is a space that feels both timeless and innovative, leaving a lasting impression on every customer.

Enhanced Customer Experience

The bakery's design emphasizes a fluid layout that transitions smoothly, enhanced by high-quality materials and abundant natural light. Strategically positioned display cases draw customers’ attention to the bakery’s offerings, while an inviting atmosphere welcomes them in. The design objective was to blend the warmth of traditional charm with the clean lines of contemporary style, ensuring comfort and visual appeal in every corner of the bakery.

Inviting Seating Areas

A well-planned layout leads customers effortlessly from the entrance to seating areas, with display cases highlighting the bakery's signature items along the way. Outdoor seating complements the interior’s cozy vibe, featuring stylish, durable furniture that encourages guests to linger and savor their experience. This design aims to create a space that entices customers to relax and keeps them coming back for more.

Palette and Color Scheme

The bakery’s sophisticated look is achieved through a carefully selected material palette, including wood, marble, and stainless steel. These durable materials bridge traditional and modern styles, complemented by a warm neutral base with vibrant accents. Natural light flows through large windows, accentuating the textures and colors, and adding depth to the overall design.

Warm Ambiance and Lighting Design

Natural light and ambient lighting work in harmony to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Large windows allow sunlight to flood the space, highlighting earthy tones and intricate textures. The lighting design features vintage chandeliers paired with modern pendant lights, adding an elegant touch that enriches the bakery’s aesthetic.

Thoughtful Details

Traditional mosaic flooring with intricate patterns reflects a bygone era's craftsmanship, establishing a sense of authenticity. The bakery’s display cases use minimalist frames and clear glass, placing the bakery’s products at the heart of the customer experience. Outdoor seating continues the bakery’s design ethos, featuring weather-resistant materials that blend style with durability. Every detail, from signage to furniture, enhances the bakery’s charm, making Dough Nyguyner’s Bakery a memorable destination where the past and present meet.

One of the best decisions we made hiring CDI as our designer. They have done 4 restaurant concepts and 2 redesigns for us. We won't work with anyone else but CDI!
