创新与适应性：Abruzzo Bodziak Architects（ABA）设计的烹饪中心展现了后疫情时代工作空间的创新。该项目通过将一个未充分利用的设施转变为热情、光线充足的工作场所，不仅吸引了员工重返办公室，也为客人提供了沉浸式体验。这种设计不仅体现了对员工福祉的重视，也展示了空间多功能性的精髓。

自然光与空间连通性：项目中一个关键的挑战是将自然光引入原本缺乏光线的中心厨房区域。通过巧妙地增加大型天窗和平行玻璃墙，不仅解决了光线问题，还增强了办公室与厨房之间的连通性，促进了规划人员和厨师之间的交流与合作。这种设计手法提升了空间的舒适度和工作效率。

社交核心与个性化空间：玻璃墙不仅定义了空间，还创造了社交核心——一系列专为项目设计的房间。这些房间以白橡木为细节，配以温暖的灯光，营造出精致而温馨的氛围。每个空间都根据建筑量身定制，提供了从私人品酒到团队会议的多功能用途。这种设计既满足了内部款待的需求，也为客人提供了独特的体验。

Text description provided by the architects. Norwalk, CT, USA - Abruzzo Bodziak Architects (ABA) has designed an innovative culinary center that reimagines post-pandemic work and production spaces within an underutilized facility in Norwalk, Connecticut. After taking over a vast kitchen and warehouse originally designed for large-scale food service, ABA's client—a team of cooking and event planning professionals known for innovative cuisine, bespoke presentation techniques, and an award-winning cookbook—approached the Architects with what they described as a "happiness project." Their goal was to attract both current and potential employees back to in-office work post-pandemic by transforming their new space into a welcoming, light-filled workplace for planners and chefs alike, and to craft an immersive experience for their own clients.

原来的建筑隐藏在一个工业综合体中，缺乏光线、舒适度和连通性。一个关键的挑战是将自然光引入位于中心的厨房，厨房上方的屋顶完全被管道系统遮挡。利用相邻区域和最小的屋顶设备，增加了有节奏的大型天窗，为宽敞的画廊式开放式办公室带来光线。办公室和厨房之间有50英尺长的平行玻璃墙，将自然光深入建筑，促进规划人员和厨师之间的联系。
Tucked away in an industrial complex, the original building lacked light, comfort, and connectivity. A key challenge was introducing natural light into the centrally-located kitchen, the roof above which was fully obstructed by ductwork. Utilizing an adjacent area with minimal rooftop equipment, large rhythmically arranged skylights were added to bring light into a spacious, gallery-like open office. 50-foot-long parallel glazed walls are situated between the office and kitchen to distribute natural light deep into the building and foster connection between planning staff and chefs.

由于玻璃墙位于这个门槛上，它们定义了第三个空间：一系列被设计为项目社交核心的房间。品酒室以白橡木为细节，由温暖的派对式灯光照亮，营造出精致的空间，使相邻的不锈钢、白色瓷砖和明亮的食物准备区变得柔和。木玻璃酒吧分为三个区域，专为内部款待而设计：一个舒适的私人品酒室，一个可容纳20人参加团队会议或大型品酒会的较大房间，以及一个用于私人电话、文书工作或一对一讨论的僻静角落。每个空间都有根据建筑量身定制的石桌。两侧的门便于进入和服务，而玻璃可以减轻热量和噪音，保持对繁忙厨房的可见性。
As the glass walls inhabit this threshold, they define a third space: a series of rooms designed as the social heart of the project. The tasting rooms, detailed in white oak and illuminated by warm, party-like lighting, create refined spaces that soften the adjacent stainless steel, white tiles, and brightly lit food preparation zone. The wood and glass bar is divided into three areas tailored for in-house hospitality: a cozy room for private tastings, a larger room accommodating twenty people for team meetings or larger tastings, and a secluded nook for private calls, paperwork, or one-on-one discussions. Each space features bespoke stone tables tailored to the architecture. Doors on both sides facilitate easy access and service, while the glass mitigates heat and noise, maintaining visibility into the bustling kitchen.

客人可以自由地穿过开放式办公室，在那里，大型定制家具定义了协作工作、休闲座位和办公室管理的区域。在大空间的两侧，私人办公室和连接大厅都覆盖着蓝绿色的面板，抵消了上方未完成的桁架天花板。镶板使用颜色来统一门口、窗户和小厨房木制品，并为前往独立浴室的客人提供半后台体验。在装修设计中优先考虑烹饪团队的员工和工作流程的同时，该建筑还以其原始和精致的空间热情欢迎客人。其适应性强的房间布局和无缝的视觉连续性使该建筑既能支持外部活动，又能作为一个引人注目的活动场所。ABA合伙人Emily Abruzzo表示：“我们的客户从事各种工作，从无浪费晚餐到与葡萄酒生产商合作进行亲密品酒，再到在大型公共活动中为数千人提供服务，因此没有一刀切的解决方案。”。“为了支持他们的活动，从测试和实验到高产生产，再到无缝和别致的现场托管，该设计提供了个性，同时允许极大的灵活性和开放性。”
Guests move freely through the open-plan office side, where large custom furniture pieces define areas for collaborative work, casual seating, and office administration. On either side of the large space, private offices and connecting halls are clad in blue-green panels that offset the unfinished trussed ceilings above. The paneling uses color to unify doorways, windows, and kitchenette millwork and to differentiate the semi-back-of-house experience for guests on their way to individual bathrooms. While prioritizing the culinary team's employees and workflows in the renovation's design, the building also warmly welcomes guests with its blend of raw and refined spaces. Its layout of adaptable rooms and seamless visual continuity allows the building to support external events while also serving as a compelling event venue on its own. "Our clients work on everything from no-waste dinners, to teaming with wine producers for intimate tastings, to serving thousands at large public events, so there's no one-fits-all solution," says ABA partner Emily Abruzzo. "To support their activities from testing and experimentation to high-yield production, to seamless and chic on-site hosting, the design provides character while allowing for tremendous flexibility and openness."
