Nie ma zbyt wielu zadań koncepcyjnych poza projektowaniem restauracji, które pokazałyby tak mocno efekt globalizacji. Często nawet ma to mniejszy związek z unifikacją międzynarodowych firm takich jak Starbucks i McDonalds, a większy z indywiudalnymi projektami - głównym tematem tej książki - ich różnorodnością jak nigdy wcześniej. Współczesne projektowanie restauracji jakkolwiek by na to nie patrzeć ma coraz mniej wspólnego z kulturą regionu (przyjnajmniej w miastach). Jeżeli Mark Newson tworzy wnętrza w Londynie lub Nowym Jorku, to projekt pokaże jego podpis, lecz nie zobaczymy tam dużego związku z miejscem.
