Hello Tiki Central!

I am currently in the process of designing a commercial Tiki Bar and could use some help. Let me be the first to say that I am deeply rooted in tradition and plan on building something that would make Donn Beach and the rest of you proud! My place is going to have all the kitsch you would expect, mixed with some serious Polynesian sensibilities. There will be a Tiki Fountain/Waterfall,a starry sky above, and it will rain every hour!

I am planning a smaller location (2500-3000 square feet)which will add to the overall friendly environment as well as help my over head. The rough design is sketched on paper,with other specifics written in my notebook.I have started to work on a final business plan to present to some investment people and I could use some help. All these great ideas need to be put on paper, presentable to those who will review it. This is where I ask you, TIKI Central to give me a hand.

I am looking for someone who can take my ideas and draw a artistic/architectural rendering. If you look in "The Book of TIKI" and other publications you can see these scattered throughout the pages. As most people (let alone investor people)arent educated on the TIKI experience these would help sell the idea. As I am building a "dream" I unfortunately dont have much in the way of funds to pay for this, so I would be asking a HUGE favor. Look at it as you are building something that will become famous for decades to come. I also think it would look good in a portfolio for whoever does it. If you are interested please email me at [email protected] or message me here.

I also require help in the way of attaining quality pieces for the interior design. I am already connected with Oceanic Arts, but could use other sources as well.Before I forget I am looking for bar ware as well, as I of course plan on serving different drinks in different glasses. Last but not least I am looking for investment money. I am positive that this project will not only be fruitful in the way of money, but it will also be something that you can be proud of. As discussed I will have a full business plan with all details available very soon.

Thanks for listening and I look forward to this community providing much needed advice and information.
