Newcastle Station Forecourt Remodeling 20June2013
Something on the lines of what they did at the British Museum I think: the outside will become an integral part of the interior of the station. Early days yet.

(WDEF) One of the most common reasons to remodel a home is to create more space, especially in older homes that have smaller rooms and less square footage. Angie Hicks of Angie's List said, "The latest trends we are seeing in remodeling is about making your space more open instead of adding on. For example, if you have a small boxy kitchen and living room, we're seeing trends towards taking the walls down and opening the space up." Contractors can often open up a wall between two rooms, like a family room and kitchen. Geoff Horen is a General Contractor. He said, "It's not uncommon for people to have us in and talk to us about how they can use the space more effectively in their home. In other words, they love their lot, they love their mature trees, they like their neighbors, they like their schools and they don't want to move, but they are trying to make their house become what it is if they go into the newer homes on the market today." But this is not a do-it-yourself type of project if you're not trained. General Contractor Dennis Smith explained, "First of all, I just tell them we are going to make a big mess. Second, we try to contain that mess the very best we can, it depends on their situation in how well we can do that. Construction is not an easy thing and it's not an exact science. So we have to make some mess before we can get to the finished project." If you don't have the budget now for a large-scale remodeling project, there are small, yet strategic improvements that will create more space. You can create additional floor space by removing bulky bookcases and entertainment centers and replacing them with shelves and cabinets. An interior designer or decorator, even a professional organizer, can help you maximize the space you have.

Casual dining, full service restaurant companies are facing tough competition from their Quick Service Restaurant peers. The opportunities to increase the top-line remain limited and companies are making extra efforts to increase shareholder returns. These steps include new product introductions to drive sales and use of technology to reduce costs and improve services.Brinker International (NYSE: EAT) is one such full service restaurant company shooting to increase its gross margin by 400 bps by 2015 through investment in the kitchen of the future and point of sales Ziosk tabletop technology. In this article, I am discussing some of these initiatives in detail.
New kitchen technology has helped to contain cost and to offer new products
The company has invested in kitchen equipment to make the Kitchen of the future. This new equipment has helped it to reduce costs as it reduces food wastage and creates savings in kitchen labor wages. It has also helped the company to be innovative and launch new product lines. It has launched Chilis pizza and flatbread products, and it has rolled out pizza across the system and will be coming up with a new advertising campaign. Flatbreads have achieved a good response in initial tests, appealing more to female than male customers. These products are expected to be introduced system-wide in value platform offerings. Its new product lines are basically high-margin categories and will boost the bottom line of the company.
Technological enhancement in Point of Sales (POS) service will attract customers
Brinker has invested in the Ziosk tabletop technology to enhance the in-store experience of its customers. Its initial results at franchisee stores are encouraging with higher average checks and customer satisfaction. This technology, with a 7 HD tablet at guests level, facilitates smooth ordering and payment. It also provides a real-time promotion opportunity and entertainment during the service process. According to store operators, it has improved sales of promoted products by 10% to 100% and increased dessert sales by 20%-50%. This technology will attract customers in the future with system-wide implementation.
Chilis brand re-image program is expected to drive growth
Chilis brand will get re-imaged after the investments in technology and new product lines introduced recently. 40% of company-owned stores have completed this re-imaging process so far. This is expected to attract customers across the chain when completed by the end of 2014 or early 2015. It has invested around $200 million for remodeling, and the remodeled stores have seen same stores sales lifted by an estimated 3%.
