Secrets from interior designers: Instagrammable locations in food establishments and their impact on brand popularity

An Instagrammable interior is not just a set of trendy elements, but a well-thought-out space that resonates with the brand’s values and emotionally captivates visitors. In the era of social media, especially Instagram, the interior design of food establishments takes on new meaning. Now it is not enough to create a functional and aesthetically appealing space – it must be “Instagrammable”. Instagrammable locations in food establishments not only attract customers but also serve as a powerful marketing tool, increasing the recognition and popularity of the establishment. Alesia Karnaukhova, CEO of СЕО ZIKZAK Architects, shared a few secrets of creating Instagrammable locations.

Understanding what inspires and motivates your potential customers will help create an interior that is not only visually appealing but also has an emotional connection with visitors. Conduct thorough research, involve your team and partners in brainstorming to find unique ideas that reflect the soul of your brand.

Every detail, from the color scheme and lighting to textures and decor, should work to create an unforgettable atmosphere. Don’t be afraid to experiment with unexpected solutions, such as using unusual materials, mixing styles, or creating multi-level spaces. The main thing is to maintain balance and integrity of the overall concept.

These can be interactive installations, art objects, unusual furniture, or well-thought-out compositions of plants and decor. It is important that these elements organically fit into the overall interior design and create a wow effect that is imprinted in memory or even stuns.

Play with different lighting scenarios depending on the time of day and the mood you want to create. Use accent lighting to highlight key interior details and plan the placement of light fixtures in a way that is both maximally comfortable for visitors and allows them to capture the perfect photo from any angle.

The use of natural materials, vertical landscaping, energy-efficient solutions, and the reuse of object filling will not only create additional Instagrammable locations but also help the establishment win the loyalty of conscious customers.

The logo, slogan, or corporate colors, skillfully woven into the interior, will not only increase brand recognition but also encourage visitors to tag your establishment in their photos on social media.

Every element of your Instagrammable interior should have its own meaning and story that can be told. Create a virtual guide or interactive map that will help visitors learn more about the concept of the establishment and find the most interesting locations for photos. Engage your customers in creating new stories by encouraging them to share their impressions and photos on social media.

Creating an Instagrammable interior for a food establishment is a complex process that requires strategic thinking, creativity, and a deep understanding of the needs of modern customers. At ZIKZAK Architects, we believe that every project is an opportunity to create a unique space that inspires, captivates, and encourages people to share their experiences with the world. By investing time and resources into a well-thought-out Instagrammable design, food establishments can not only increase their popularity but also create a strong emotional connection with their customers. And this is the key to long-term success in today’s competitive environment.
