Recycled decor and furniture at STORK restaurant

Using recycled pieces such as chairs, lamps, tables, or decor in general in a restaurant is not only a great idea to save money by lowering the cost of those items, but it also catches people's attention, and in a restaurant that translates into free advertising.

    Using recycled pieces such as chairs, lamps, tables, or decor in general in a restaurant is not only a great idea to save money by lowering the cost of those items, but it also catches people's attention, and in a restaurant that translates into free advertising.

    People get curious when they hear about it, and once they visit the restaurant they usually take plenty of photos that end up on their social media, where their friends see them. That is excellent advertising

    A case I find quite good on this topic is that of the STORK restaurant in Amsterdam. To begin with, the restaurant opened in a space inside a closed factory, so the industrial look they have achieved through recycling suits it very well.

    Below we want to show you some photographs of the STORK café-restaurant in Amsterdam.
