My projects explore how recipes from Marinetti\u2019s futurist cookbook can be adapted for contemporary context and how they might inform the design of space and architecture.<\/h6>\n
The building project focuses on four dining experiences based on four recipes laid out in Marinetti\u2019s book \u2013 Springtime Meal of the Word in Liberty, Summer Luncheon for Painters and Sculptors, Autumn Musical Dinner and Heroic Winter Dinner. These banquets are held in four spaces on site, each with a primary programme that takes on the additional role of a restaurant during their respective season. Similar to the first project, these spaces will draw heavily from the recipes to create unique culinary experiences. The site will be transformed into an orchard that grows all produce the restaurants require. It also behaves as a landscape and stitches the four spaces together. Greater attention was given to the development of the Autumn and Winter spaces as the respective recipes contain richer descriptions of the diner\u2019s experience. These informed the butchery\u2019s Helmholtz dining chambers, where visitors dine within a chamber resonating in key with one of Bach\u2019s violin symphonies, and the brewery\u2019s tasting chambers where visitors are invited to blow trumpets between mouthfuls to accompany the continuous rolling of water-powered drums. The landscaped orchard that provides structural support and irrigation of agriculture also enhances the journey that visitors take between spaces. It directs the music produced by these dining chambers, controls sight lines and creates visually interesting spaces like the forest of water tanks and the sunset clearing. The central kitchen and brewery sit prominently on a hill at the centre of the site so visitors are always aware of the preparation of meals that become a daily spectacle. A final model of the proposal was fabricated and photographed to capture the atmospheric qualities, culinary experience and seasonal nature of this project.<\/h6>\n
