# Samford Teaching Kitchen > University Teaching Kitchen Renovation This is the plain-text version of https://blackstone.build/commercial/projects/samford-teaching-kitchen. To cite or link, use that page. - Type: Higher Education - Place: Homewood, AL ## Project overview A teaching kitchen has to cook like a commercial kitchen and read like a classroom. This one puts several full cooking stations in a single room so a class can work at the same time. Each station has its own cooktop and exhaust hood, with wall ovens and refrigeration shared between them. One station is built at an accessible height with open knee space. A three-compartment sink and a tiled wash wall handle cleanup, and quartz tops and flat-panel casework keep the room easy to wipe down. ## What we built 1. Multiple cooking stations, each with its own hood 2. One station built at accessible height with knee clearance 3. Three-compartment sink and glazed-tile wash wall 4. Quartz worktops and flat-panel casework 5. Kitchen exhaust and make-up air threaded through an occupied building The page shows 6 photographs of this project.
