Trickshot Afi Cotroceni

Authors’ Comment

Trickshot is a destination – a concept that unfolds across large surfaces, unlike traditional restaurants. It was created as a response to the growing consumer demand to integrate entertainment into their everyday dining experiences.

Located in one of the busiest shopping centers in Bucharest, Trickshot stands out through a creative aesthetic, built on an unconventional mix of textures, materials, and forms. Each zone is designed not only as a visual experience but also as a functional part of an intuitive spatial journey: from casual dining areas (for food enthusiasts) to recreational spaces (for bowling, billiards, or social interaction), everything is organized around the ideas of flow and comfort.
The #FunDining concept, seen through the lens of design, redefines the idea of going out to a restaurant, offering instead a contemporary reinterpretation of the urban entertainment space.

It also supports innovative solutions: modular and reconfigurable furniture that can be relocated between other Trickshot locations, allowing new creative spaces to be shaped from the same pieces. Interactive technologies enhance customer engagement. The atmosphere is versatile – it can be relaxing or energizing, depending on the time of day and the audience.

Beyond aesthetics and functionality, the project adheres to sustainability principles: low-carbon footprint finishes, energy-efficient LED lighting, and removable covers for soft seating that extend the furniture’s lifespan. The design not only looks good – it is responsibly built.
