CLIENT: TOPHER’S   LOCATION: HATTIESBURG, MS


Topher’s, a restaurant concept that prides itself on good food, good company culture, and a family-friendly atmosphere, was looking to renovate an existing facility into its latest and greatest design aesthetic, as well as outfit the kitchen from an existing Frozen Custard Concept to its new concept all under a very strict budget and timeframe, completed a renovation to a former diner in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.



Topher’s collaborated with Greenleaf Architects on a rustic industrial design, while incorporating existing large pains of glass, for an open feel. With a large portion of the available funds for construction being utilized for kitchen equipment and furniture, our team needed to think outside the box for both new interior and exterior upgrades. Seating accommodates over 50 people inside, while an open-air covered patio seats up to 24, with a drive-thru. The approved design solution still defines the brand today.
