This book is the first guide to kitchen design from a cooking perspective. As the only book for the homeowner who wants a kitchen that is beautiful and that cooks beautifully, it takes the most complex room in the home and addresses its function as well as its form.
With forty years of experience in the design and cooking fields, Don Silvers has discovered that most people have no idea of the pleasure that can be added to cooking in the right kitchen. This book will add new joy to cooking for every reader, even those who have previously disliked cooking.

Background:
Donald E. Silvers, CKD, integrates over forty years of experience as a residential and commercial kitchen designer, chef, and food industry executive into a function-oriented approach to design. Mr. Silvers is an experienced lecturer and a nationally published writer on a variety of issues relating to an efficient work environment. He is known for his "Silvers' Law of Design," which states: "A functional kitchen has the ability to take a given space and expand or compress the capacity of that space so it can respond to a given need at a given time."
Mr. Silvers also has tested and critiqued small appliances and written reviews of cookbooks and kitchen equipment for a variety of magazines and as a menu consultant for Le Campion Gourmet Club. His articles have been a catalyst to encourage the kitchen industry to change its focus from kitchens that not only look beautiful, but that cook as well.
Starting in the mid seventies, he began teaching cooking and kitchen design for UCLA extension, Interior Designers Guild, United Design Association, San Diego Mesa College, Los Angeles Mission College (a Los Angeles Community College), Everywoman's Village, Bristol Farms, The Epicurean, Bon Appetit, The Renaissance Restaurant, and Draeger’s as well as other restaurants and gourmet cooking shops. He was also a featured speaker at the 1993 national conference for the National Kitchen and Bath Association. Donald Silvers can be reached at 323-934-4761, email:sildesigns@aol.com

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
