Start with the work before heat.
Map where ingredients arrive, where tools rest and how a prepared item reaches the cooking station. Note the peak handover, staff movement and surfaces used in the actual operation.

PLAN THE HANDOVER ↗A kitchen moves in stages.
Build the cooking conversation around preparation, heat and the handover to service.
Follow the station story ↓Explore three concepts ↗
THE STATION STORY
Preparation. Heat. Handover.
A moving sketch connects each stage to the questions it creates.
Preparation route and working reach
Give each cooking task its own space.
Group the real menu tasks by cooking method. Ask which functions may share a station and which require separate utilities or extraction review. The concept layout is not an installation plan.
Review cook questions ↗Make the next handover visible.
Agree where completed items move, who receives them and how dishes return without obstructing the preparation route. Include service access and cleaning in the same drawing review.
Review pass questions ↗THE EQUIPMENT STUDIES

Your concept comparison
Compare fictional reference envelopes. Real compatibility and performance require actual model documents.
Select concepts to compare.
A clear brief, before a range.
Menu before machinery
Identify the cooking methods and handover points the actual menu needs. A wider range is not automatically the right range.
One drawing, named owners
Record who confirms equipment, extraction, utilities and access. Keep assumptions beside the drawing revision.
Evidence before commitment
Match actual product documents to the intended market and project. The illustrated units here have no verified performance or approvals.
YOUR NEXT DRAWING CONVERSATION
Bring the menu and the route.
A fictional brief can show how requirements stay with the selected concept. It is downloaded locally and never sent.
