Kitchen – TV Show concept

February 3rd, 2003

The project is the set design for an Italian national television program broadcast daily from 8:00p.m. to 8.15 pm on RAI 1.It is a show on cooking with daily guests who prepare and enjoy dinner together in front of a studio audience. The concept consists of a split level apartment with an elevator-platform on which the dining-table stands. Several large mirrors act as a kind of kaleideoscope allowing for unique camera angles and split screens. In a single shot we can see the food being prepared, the guests, the audience, and the production crew. The platform is a mirror, the guests enter through a revolving mirror, and above the kitchen is a tilted mirror which gives the audience a unique and spectacular view.
