The Hood By Olive

Type Bar
Location Bengaluru
Client Olive Group


The Hood wasn't designed to be another bar in Bangalore.

A space Olive Group is proud of. A neighbourhood that claimed it as its own.

As a specialized bar interior designer in Bangalore and restaurant designer in Bangalore, SprintCo created this project for the Olive Group with one question: what if we designed neighbourhoods, not destinations?

SprintCo's methodology centers on behavioural design, understanding how people move, pause, and stay in spaces they love. We work with restaurant owners, bar concepts, and café brands to create spaces that are operationally sharp, visually considered, and built to become part of the neighbourhoods they sit in.

Every project starts with the same question: what does this space need to do? From there, we design around flow, brand, and the long game, spaces that age well and feel more like themselves over time, not less.

Approach Behavioural design focus built for the long game, not just opening day
