Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Kitchens are an increasingly important facet of residential design, and often result in the highest cost per square foot of any room in a residence. Residential Kitchen Design offers a research-based method for both creating new kitchens and remodeling existing ones. It responds to today's lifestyle factors, technology, and house sizes to accommodate clients in the 1990s and into the next century." "This guide updates the concept of kitchen centers presented by Glenn Beyer in the early 1950s, incorporating the current philosophies of universal design and accessibility. Detailed, specific guidelines are provided for successful design of conventional and increasingly popular multiple-cook kitchens. The design process for kitchen renovation projects is included in response to the trend toward housing renovation and rehabilitation." "Specific instructions on implementation are particularly useful. The authors address every design step from needs assessment to the construction phase." "Both a new and a remodeling project are illustrated to demonstrate each step of the application process in kitchen design. Included are extensive graphics that clarify various design methods and solutions to spatial problems that may confront the designer." "Appendices feature a list of design and construction documents required to bring the kitchen concept to reality, tables that assist with lighting design, and sources for additional information on specific products and appliances." "The design method employed makes Residential Kitchen Design as accessible for design newcomers as it is for experienced professionals. It will be a valuable source for interior designers, architects, builders/developers, and kitchen designers."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book The Kitchen written by John Ota and published by Appetite by Random House. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One man's quest to seek out--and be inspired by--the great historic kitchens of Canada and the USA. John Ota was a man on a mission--to put together the perfect kitchen. He and his wife had been making do with a room that was frankly no great advertisement for John's architectural expertise. It just about did the job but for a room that's supposed to be the beating heart of a home and a joy to cook in, the Otas' left a lot to be desired. And so John set out on a quest across North America, exploring examples of excellent designs throughout history, to learn from them and apply their lessons to his own restoration. Along the way, he learned about the origins and evolution of the kitchen, its architecture and its appliances. He cooked, with expert instruction. And he learned too about the homes and their occupants, who range from pilgrims to President Thomas Jefferson, from turn of the century tenement dwellers to 21st century Vancouver idealists, from Julia Child to Georgia O'Keeffe, and from Elvis Presley to Louis Armstrong. John Ota has a refreshingly upbeat approach and a hunger for knowledge (and indeed for food). His energy and enthusiasm are contagious, and his insights of lasting value. Illustrated throughout, with photographs and also with drawings by the author, this is a book for homeowners, home makers, interior designers, cooks, armchair historians, and for anyone who--like John Ota before them--is looking for inspiration for a renovation.

Download or read book New Art of Cookery written by Vicky Hayward and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-06-16 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Jane Grigson Trust Award 2017 and the Aragonese Academy of Gastronomy’s 2017 Prize for Research New Art of Cookery, Drawn from the School of Economic Experience, was an influential recipe book published in 1745 by Spanish friary cook Juan Altamiras. In it, he wrote up over 200 recipes for meat, poultry, game, salted and fresh fish, vegetables and sweet things in a chatty style aimed at readers who cooked on a modest budget. He showed that economic cookery could be delicious if flavors and aromas were blended with an appreciation for all sorts of ingredients, however humble, and for diverse food cultures, ranging from that of Aragon, his home region, to those of Iberian court and New World kitchens. This first English translation gives guidelines for today’s cooks alongside the original text, and interweaves a new narrative portraying 18th-century Spain, its everyday life, and food culture. The author traces links between New Art’s dishes and modern Spanish cookery, tells the story of her search to identify the book’s author and understand the popularity of his book for over 150 years, and takes travelers, cooks, historians, and students of Spanish language, culture, and gastronomy on a fascinating journey to the world of Altamiras and, most important of all, his kitchen.

Download or read book Alfred Kazin s America written by Alfred Kazin and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2004-09-28 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of sixty years, Alfred Kazin's writings confronted virtually all of our major imaginative writers, from Emerson to Emily Dickinson to James Wright and Joyce Carol Oates -- including such unexpected figures as Lincoln, William James, and Thorstein Veblen. This son of Russian Jews wrote out of the tensions of the outsider and the astute, outspoken leftist -- or, as he put it, "the bitter patriotism of loving what one knows." Editor Ted Solotaroff hasselected material from Kazin's three classic memoirs to accompany his critical writings. Alfred Kazin's America provides an ongoing example of the spiritual freedom, individualism, and democratic contentiousness that he regarded as his heritage and endeavored to pass on.
