THE DOUGH STUDIO

Thesis Project (NUS)

Reimagining the archetype of instructional step-by-step recipes today, The Dough Studio is an interactive, community-driven web page that emphasizes on the process of creating instead of just replicating recipes.

It aims to allow the every-day home cook to visualize a chef’s mind by understanding recipes from its fundamental ingredients, exploring and unveiling the relationships between them, and drawing out unexplored areas to inspire people to create.
