Cambridge School of Culinary Arts
Traditional Style
Cambridge, MA
Renovation
This culinary school required several large classrooms, commercial kitchens, and offices as well as a small cafe for students' wares
The buildings housing the school had to be merged at the ground level to create a single space
The main portion of the building houses a cafe in a wooden and brick storefront
The corner presented an opportunity to have whimsical hand-carved elements to bring attention to the school to passerby
Classroom spaces are provided with ample windows to provide daylight and keep the school connected to the vibrant city
Functional kitchens thoughout the building allow students many hands-on opportunities
This pastry classroom provides a relaxing area between classes as well as treats for the school's cafe
