Virgo Fidelis Convent School – Food Technology Room refurbishment
Food technology room refurbishment
Food Technology rooms demand high Health and Safety standards and purpose-built installations.
Innova designs dynamic and practical food technology spaces that promote creativity and support effective learning. With adaptable workstations, built-in units, efficient storage, and functional teacher walls, our classrooms are tailored to inspire both students and educators.
Recently, we transformed the food technology room at Virgo Fidelis Convent School in London with the installation of a state-of-the-art, ‘Masterchef-style’ interior, providing a modern and engaging space for students to explore culinary skills.

The brief
Innova’s brief was to refurbish the old technology room and transform it into a vibrant, modern space that fosters both practical and theoretical learning.
The goal was to create a space that seamlessly combines functionality with contemporary design, offering clearly defined zones for a range of activities. These zones include areas dedicated to hands-on cooking, collaborative group work, and individual spaces for students to complete written theory and coursework.
The design prioritises flexibility, ensuring the space can accommodate a wide variety of teaching methods and learning styles. from practical cooking demonstrations, team-based projects, or independent study. The flexibility of the space allows for smooth transitions between different teaching modes, empowering both students and teachers to make the most of every learning opportunity.
The new design features modern fixtures and a bright, open atmosphere, to inspire creativity and boost engagement. It provides students with the ideal space to hone their culinary skills while reinforcing the academic elements of their studies.
The solution
As part of the design process, Innova carefully planned the room layout to maximise space for both teaching and learning. Special attention was given to creating flexible workstations, integrated units, and efficient storage solutions, ensuring the layout was both practical and functional in a busy environment.
To ensure longevity, we used durable, high-quality solid surfaces throughout, delivering a finish that would withstand frequent use. Pastel greens and light-colored workbenches contributed to a bright and airy atmosphere, while wood-effect, non-slip flooring added a contemporary touch, inspired by the design of a professional kitchen like those seen on Masterchef.
Key features include:
-
A custom-designed layout with areas dedicated to cooking, group work, and theory-based tasks.
-
Durable Velstone solid surfaces throughout, offering lasting quality and functionality.
-
A “Masterchef” inspired color scheme, complemented by wood-effect, non-slip laminate flooring.
