The fourth Spread I made for work this year! Theme here for Christmas: 3 Kinds of Brie (Triple Creme, Truffle Brie, Blue Brie) x Chocolate 🧀 🍫 🎄 !! . To me, a Spread (cheese, charcuterie, etc) is an edible painting, a “Mood Board” that captures the Essence - or the “Parti” - of an occasion. . Every individual ingredient carries #Meaning that when placed together creates this effect (the Mood). 👉 So if you change one thing, you can change or greatly alter the effect. 👍🤔 . Comprised of both the technical processes as well as the aesthetic Beauty of food, nothing in the world combines so succinctly the five senses like a good Spread does - this in addition to food’s other aspects, i.e: cultural, identity, bringing people together, Nutrition/macros, etc. . So I therefore challenge You: can you represent yourself as a Spread? 🤔 . . Next board: A Vietnamese inspired Cheese Board for Tet (Lunar New Years) in February 🧧 - stay tuned !!! . #cheeseboards #cheese #chocolate #christmas #torontolifestyle #philosophy #design #architecture #design #interiordesign #parti #foodie #torontolife #brie #foodphilosophy #designthinking #toronto #torontofood #friyay #friday #GWFE #mood #moodboard #foodspread #keto #ketodiet #foodie #macros #iifym

Two more courses down + another semester of school done (2/7)!! ✅✅ . Looking forward to next year’s plans and goals ~ . The “Freedom to Create”, again, precedes and permeates 🕊#ikigai . #toronto #stlawrencemarket #starbucks #coffee #goals #freedomtocreate #goalsetting #2019 #2019goals #wellbeing #lawrencetech #ltu #masterofarchitecture #torontolife #torontolifestyle
