Prequel’s design brings an industrial edge to Hebbal with a warm, social-first layout. We balanced high ceilings and open views with intimate, light-filled pockets.

The open plan layout of Prequel, with its high ceilings and ample natural light, creates a serene, alfresco-style dining experience. The design draws inspiration from the beautiful cityscape views visible from its two open sides.

We ensured the furniture was versatile and easy to move, allowing the space to transform for different events and crowds. The black and white patterned chairs add a graphic pop to the industrial setting.

We created comfortable lounge seating pockets for a more intimate experience. These areas, furnished with plush cushions and surrounded by greenery, invite guests to relax and enjoy the space at their leisure.

The long, curved bar is an understated focal point, clad in muted subway tiles and softly lit from below. As evening approaches, it becomes a glowing centerpiece that draws people together.

Large community tables, highlighted by clusters of woven pendant lights, create intermediate points of interest. These setups are perfect for larger groups and foster a communal dining atmosphere.

We created drama in the entrance lobby with a massive installation of custom fabric lights. Paired with a lenticular wall and reflective surfaces, this area becomes an iconic and memorable first impression.

A quick look at the chic, modern design of Prequel. This video showcases the blend of industrial elements, natural textures, and comfortable furnishings that define this all-day dining restaurant in the heart of Hebbal.

A detail of the entrance lobby, where a wall adorned with cross-sections of wood logs adds a rustic, natural texture. This contrasts with the sleek mirrors and modern lighting, showcasing our love for mixing materials.

A custom curved bench in a soft, neutral fabric provides elegant waiting area seating. It sits against a backdrop of botanical wallpaper, introducing a touch of nature and softness to the lobby.

The lenticular wallpaper in the entrance lobby creates a dynamic effect, with the botanical pattern appearing to shift as you walk by. This interactive element adds a layer of discovery and playfulness to the design.

About Prequel: Industrial Chic & Social Spaces

When we designed Prequel, the priority was modularity. Because it is an all-day dining spot, we used moveable furniture and varied seating zones to ensure the space feels just as comfortable for a busy lunch crowd as it does for a relaxed, quiet evening drink.
