With a decade of experience in hospitality, urban planning, and exhibition design, both in her native Hong Kong and in Canada, where she studied architecture, Christina Luk<\/a> has put her cross-disciplinary sensibility on display—alongside forward-thinking kitchen appliances—at a showroom at the manufacturer’s headquarters<\/a>. A 10,800-square-foot floor plate there now contains what Luk calls a “culinary village,” a compound of small structures including four housing “ideal kitchens.” Each has a theme: minimal white, total black, rustic country, and modern American. A redbrick gallery shaped like a Quonset hut leads visitors through the evolution of oven technology. The neighboring cooking classroom, resembling a kitchen in a private residence, allows them to whip up a dish of their own on fully functional test appliances.<\/p>\n
