The study adopted a qualitative research approach that collected data 14 from secondary sources. The data were gathered through internet search and libraries of higher 15 institutions in the study area. The data gathered were analyzed by content analysis and presented 16 descriptively, using thematic approach. The findings indicated that the design of a restaurant plays 17 a significant role in achieving users’ satisfaction and business promotion. Some of the key design 18 strategies designers need to pay attention in achieving sustainable development include: lighting, 19 layout, colour, landscape and exterior elements.
