Mindful Design Consulting helped with branding and design of my bubble tea venture. Katerina was a pleasure to work with, her work was beyond my expectations. Residing in Canada, I was hesitant to work with a company from another country and to my surprise, Mindful Design had more knowledge of high-level branding and design than any company in Canada.
Katerina worked with my local architect to prevent any potential issues with the building department and was very responsive to any questions from our architects and engineers.
The entire process was highly enjoyable. Despite numerous minor revision requests, Katerina facilitated changes or provided explanations for keeping her proposed designs. She has a wealth of knowledge on what works and what doesn’t.

Mindful Design has helped me design two stores now, and I am extremely happy with both designs! I reached out knowing absolutely nothing about what it takes to design and open a new store and worked with Katerina who guided me every step of the way.
For anyone new to business, this is unbelievably helpful as the process can be extremely overwhelming. She helped me think through space layout, finishes, equipment, graphics, and so much more. The best part about working with Mindful is when the design process is finished, your plan set is thorough and CODE COMPLIANT!

When my wife and I decided to start our own frozen yogurt store, we didn’t know what to expect. After contacting Mindful Design, that all changed. We asked them to create a brand and image from the ground up, and they went above and beyond anything we could have asked for. Our frozen yogurt store design and brand exceeded anything we could have hoped for. Every step of the way we were well informed and all of our questions we answered very quickly. The end result is amazing. They took our very vague idea and turned it into a highly polished product that rivals many franchises. We especially like the bright colors and our logo design. After they handed off our finished design, we have had a few questions along the way. Mindful Design has been very attentive to our needs even at this stage of the deal. Highly impressed. If anyone out there is in need of theses services, we would absolutely recommend Mindful Design.

Mindful Design helped us design our Frozen Yogurt Store – Sprinkles On Top, located in Elk Grove, CA. When I first contacted them, all I knew was that I wanted to somehow build this store for my kids. I did not knew anything else, I had no logo, no name, maybe a few colors in mind and the vibe we wanted to create. They just took that thought and helped me create my vision into an actual store. They were always there for me, often going above & beyond to help meet my deadlines. Katerina has exceeded all my expectations and worked very hard to get all my projects completed. The best thing about Katerina is that she is very easy going, often a phone call or an email away. She will stay on top of the To-Do list, and even remind you for the work I should be completing. It just shows her dedication to the project. Therefore, if there is anyone out there who is unaware or unsure on where to start in your store designing needs, Katerina is your go to person.
P.S. – Highly recommend getting the 3-D model of your store build. It comes in super handy!!!

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to design and get permits for a dessert shop?
During your process of opening a new restaurant or a store, one of the things you’ll need to do is hire an interior designer or an architect. Once you have done it, you need to be aware of the process they will follow. Here is a description of the four phases you should expect them to take you through and how long each of them will take. READ HERE.
Why do I need good branding for my restaurant or a store?
Why do I need good branding for my restaurant or a store? I already put something together myself… Sounds familiar?
To the budget-minded owner of a new store or restaurant, it may seem that putting money and effort into branding is not a high priority. At most, branding is the cherry on the top – it makes for a good impression, but is of secondary importance. After all, a quality product is all you need. Right?
Wrong. Far from being a fancy detail, branding is essential for a business that wants to reach its true potential. Branding tells people who you are, makes them remember you, and creates the impression of a coherent business vision. Customers are attracted to businesses that have a clearly defined image and let them know exactly what they are about. Creating a brand is also important for you, as a business owner. It makes you look deep into how you want your business to be perceived and helps you come up with a cohesive vision and business strategy. Read more about the reasons of why you need branding READ HERE.
How much does a store or restaurant construction cost?
One of the first questions you’ll want to answer when planning to open a store or a restaurant business is “How much will the construction of my space cost?” The answer depends on your particular space – its current state and where you want to take it from there. However, a rough estimate of your restaurant construction cost is possible and is exactly what our Tenant Improvement Calculator offers you.
Of course, your costs will depend on the size of your space, the products you choose and the designer and contractors you decide to employ. However, a tool like our calculator can help you start the planning process and even allow you to play with the numbers in order to see how you can better use your budget.
So, before you go ahead and start punching in numbers, here are a few things to consider, and a few major elements that drive the cost of a restaurant design project. READ HERE.
How to price contractors, architects and designers?
When trying to design and open a store or restaurant, the best ideas are worth nothing if they are not implemented right. Similarly, the best implementation may end up in disaster if it drains your financial resources and leaves you in a precarious spot before you even start on your way as a business owner.
To help you with the complicated process of selecting a team that will assist you in designing and building your store or restaurant, we came up with a few tips. READ HERE
What is interior branding?
Interior branding is the way a business presents itself to the world visually as a customer enters their premises.
Often interior branding makes the difference in the consumers’ decision to buy (or not) its products or services. Interior branding or “branding by interior” is a concept that helps any business to manipulate the way it is perceived by its customers through the design of its interior space.
Today, using interior design to create an emotional response in their clients or employees is a decisive part of a winning business strategy plan. If you want to learn more about this concept, READ HERE.
Should I buy a franchise or create my own brand?
When deciding to enter the world of business ownership, you have two ways to go about it: first, buy an established and well-tested franchise; second, create your own brand and start from the ground up. Both are viable options that come with pros and cons. Choosing the path that is best for you depends on the type of your business, the risk you want to take, the money you want to make, and most of all, the freedom you want to have in making business decisions.
To make the “franchise versus new brand” choice an easier task, we put together a list with the good and the bad in each alternative, that you can weigh against your own ambitions. READ HERE.
How do I know when and how to update my business brand?
Today more than ever, keeping up with the times in the restaurant and retail business is a job in itself. Tastes change from one year to another, generational divides make it harder to appeal to a vague audience, and neighboring businesses are always up to something new that keeps you on your toes. In this business environment, it is important to know when to update your business brand.
While a total rebranding of your business is neither possible nor advisable every time you feel you are left behind, a periodic refresh of your brand is absolutely necessary in order to survive the competition. We found that a business refreh every 5 years is a good rule to follow if you want to remain actual and continue to appeal to your customers.
Updating your brand and interior is even more important when your business model changes, when you are trying to reach a new audience or when your feel that what used to make your business unique fails to impress today’s customers. When your interior becomes tired and uninspiring, when your logo has the vibe of another decade, or when the overall style of your business is outdated and inefficient, you need to give your business a facelift and bring it back into the present.
So how exactly do you do that if you are in the restaurant, bar or dessert business? What should you update, and where should you start? Here is the bare minimum that we advise our clients to consider. READ HERE.
