Teaching Kitchen Classroom Designed for Interactive Culinary-Style Instruction
Attached to the working kitchen, a student learning space with 5 team learning stations creates a classroom for approximately 20 to 25 students for demonstrations and hands on learning – similar to that found in a culinary program or school. All students can observe the work in the classroom, which is also equipped with video capabilities for recording and distance learning.
Team Collaboration Delivers Complex Kitchen Infrastructure Within a Historic Dormitory Framework
The design implementation challenges included the constraints of the space in a 1952 six-story residential dormitory building. Special skill was required to include seven exhaust hoods and make-up air equipment in an existing limited first floor space, with dormitory spaces above. The geometry of the available areas, a raised concrete floor area in the middle of the proposed kitchen, and the limits of the structural grid required a unique approach for the plan and equipment layouts. Through collaboration by team members and University staff, the project succeeded in meeting the working needs of the catering staff, despite the limits.

Columbus North High School
Strategic Entry Designed for Safety and Flexibility
The main entrance, previously located on the south side of the building, was relocated to the north addition. The clearly identifiable, secure entry strategically creates a division between the new cafeteria and the administration area. This arrangement allows for secure, public access to the cafeteria in the evenings when needed.
Built for Teamwork, Connection, and Discovery
One of the primary goals identified was to create teacher and student areas that inspire creativity, collaboration, problem solving and innovation. This was achieved by designing Resource Areas located in the center of the Academic portions of the building along the main circulation spine. Flexible furniture within the classrooms provides additional opportunities for collaboration.
From the Classroom to Center Stage
New Performing Arts spaces offer much needed acoustics, storage, and larger classroom spaces to accommodate the popular show choir, orchestra, and jazz programs.
