With a focus on mobile ordering and curbside pick-up, the new designs embrace a new way of serving visitors by offering drive-in and walk-up order areas, curbside pick-up areas, an enhanced drive-thru experience, exterior dining spaces, and sustainable design elements.</p> <p><br></p> <p>The new design was created by Restaurant Brands International's in-house design team. "The designs we&rsquo;ve created completely integrate restaurant functionality and technology. The restaurant of the tomorrow merges the best functional technology with unique modern design to elevate our&nbsp;<em>Burger King</em>&nbsp;guest experience,&rdquo; said Rapha Abreu, Global Head of Design at Restaurant Brands International in a statement. &ldquo;We designed the interior and exterior spaces like we had a blank sheet of paper, designing without preconceived notions of how a&nbsp;<em>Burger King&nbsp;</em>restaurant should look."</p>
