Amelie House
Construction Design
Revolex undertook a comprehensive refurbishment project at Amelie House, a Jewish Care facility in London, involving the strip-out and installation of five new kitchens across three floors. This project required precise modifications to the existing electrical, water, and waste systems to accommodate the new kitchen designs. A significant aspect of the project was dividing each kitchen into two distinct sections for the preparation of meat and dairy meals, in accordance with kosher dietary laws. Additionally, high-quality quartz worktops were installed to enhance both functionality and aesthetics.
The refurbishment project presented several challenges, primarily logistical in nature. The most significant hurdle was the limited space available for storage and waste management. Given the confined area, it was crucial to meticulously coordinate each delivery and waste removal operation to avoid disruptions. Furthermore, the project was carried out in a live environment where the care facility remained operational, requiring careful planning to ensure the safety and comfort of the residents during the refurbishment process.
Revolex implemented a series of tailored solutions to address the unique requirements of this project. To adhere to kosher dietary laws, we designed and constructed kitchen spaces that allow for the separate preparation of meat and dairy meals, thus preventing any cross-contamination. The kitchens were divided into two distinct areas, each equipped with separate appliances, including fridges, dishwashers, sinks, and storage units. To further delineate these areas, we installed LED lighting systems, with red lights indicating the meat preparation area and blue lights for the dairy section. This innovative approach not only ensured compliance with dietary regulations but also enhanced the efficiency of meal preparation.
The refurbishment of the kitchens at Amelie House significantly improved the functionality and efficiency of the facility’s food preparation processes. The newly installed kitchens enable the staff to prepare meals more quickly and with greater ease, leading to faster service for residents. In addition to these practical benefits, the modern quartz worktops and well-organised kitchen layouts have also enhanced the overall aesthetics of the canteen areas, creating a more pleasant environment for both staff and residents.
