In today’s hospitality market, creating spaces that feel current and inviting is more important than ever. Venues are increasingly exploring how existing restaurant furniture can be refreshed and re-imagined, while introducing new pieces where they add the most impact. This balanced approach allows interiors to feel fresh, functional and future-ready without always requiring a complete overhaul.
So what options are available to you?
Updating Surfaces
Table tops can be swapped out to instantly revitalise a space. If your bases are still in good condition, we can supply new tops in a range of materials including compact laminate, stone and wood to give your furniture a fresh look without a full replacement.
Matching New Chairs to Existing Designs
We can work with you to select new seating options that complement your current style to create a cohesive and inviting environment for your guests. Whether it’s matching wood tones, metal finishes or upholstery colours, new chairs can enhance comfort and style without disrupting the overall design.
Refreshing with Soft Furnishings
Small textile updates can have a big impact on the look and feel of your restaurant. Introducing cushions or seat pads in complementary colours or textures brings comfort and style while highlighting your existing furniture. For larger areas, fabric-covered panels or upholstered bench tops can subtly modernise the space, adding depth, warmth and personality without the need for a full replacement.
Re-Configuring Layouts
Sometimes a refresh is about re-thinking the layout rather than the product. Swapping poseur tables for banquettes, or introducing flexible modular seating, can change the flow and energy of a space.
At Protocol we work with designers and restaurant owners to provide both options, from sourcing new, design-led furniture to advising on how existing pieces can be re-imagined. If you’re considering a refresh, a replacement, or a mix of both, our team is here to help you find the right balance for your space.
