While certain features like the stencil font and the quirky presentation of dishes are common to all Socials, with each new outlet, we try to make sure the look and feel of the space is different. Sticking to the concept of minimal intervention, the recently-opened Koramangala Social {it’s the 15th one in the country, in fact} has a rather bare look, much like a construction site. The greenery all around lends the space an almost post-apocalyptic theme, with the greens overrunning other elements here.
Driven by the thought of creating minimal wastage, recycling and bringing out the soul of the city, the decor of the space has been designed by Faizan Khatri {Mumbai-based architect and co-founder of the design studio, Studio eight twentythree}. From the typography based-art on the walls {saying Photosynthesis and Chrolophyll} to the leaf patterns on the tables {based on plants unique to the city}, the art at the outlet is the handiwork of Hanif Kureshi {co-founder and artistic director of the St+art India festival}.
