Projects drove the project, collaborating with Ambach to create a proposal utilizing their extensive range of products. Tey designed a one- piece top island suite that included appliances from System 700, 850 and 900, while also seamlessly incorporating additional appliances from other manufacturers.
Maximize output Te brief was to update the existing facilities with modern equipment and enhance their capacity to increase output within the same footprint, accommodating the growing number of students. “Te solution needed to be powerful, flexible,

Careful consideration went into every part of the
project. “It was important to measure doorways, turns and corridors of the access routes into the kitchen.
