41-15 36th Street is an interior remodeling project for a commercial kitchen located in the industrial and manufacturing neighborhood of Queens, NY. The design approach focuses on enhancing circulation and efficiency within the kitchen while also creating elegant, flexible office spaces that support the functional needs of the business.
The first floor features an open kitchen layout spanning nearly 2,200 square feet, with strategically placed storage areas, lockers, and bathrooms to support the work environment. Above, the mezzanine houses an open office space, a conference/tasting room, additional bathrooms, and a private office. Large openings between the conference room, office, and kitchen allow for visual connection between the food preparation process and its tasting, creating a unique experience where the act of creating food is linked to its enjoyment. This design also maximizes natural light and ventilation throughout the space, promoting a healthy, efficient working environment.
Flexibility is key in the office areas. The conference room features five panel doors that open into the office space, allowing for adaptable use of the area as needed.
To create a sophisticated and calming atmosphere, modern and sleek materials such as hardwood flooring, blue paint, concrete, and wood wall coverings are used in the office areas. On the kitchen floor, more practical materials like epoxy flooring and rubber wall cove base are chosen for their durability and suitability to the space's operational needs. The overall design balances function and aesthetic appeal, ensuring a comfortable and efficient environment for both the kitchen and office teams.
