Saveur Magazine Test Kitchen

A working test kitchen at the heart of Saveur magazine’s editorial process, where recipes are prepared and tested before publication. Warm wood, stainless steel and shared work surfaces create a practical setting for cooking and collaboration.
CHALLENGE
Create a kitchen that supports the exacting work behind each published recipe while accommodating a team working together. Preparation, cooking and storage needed to form a coherent workspace with everyday tools close at hand.
PROCESS
I developed the kitchen around shared work areas and the relationship between preparation, cooking and storage. Wood surfaces and cabinetry bring warmth to the stainless steel equipment, while open shelving keeps cookware visible and accessible.
OUTCOME
A purposeful, welcoming kitchen that supports the hands-on work behind Saveur’s pages - a place to prepare, test and refine the recipes readers would bring into their own homes.
