Costa is a chef who became a designer, which means her drawings account for the fact that someone has to work an eight-hour service inside them. She is usually brought in either very early — before the shell is fixed and the cost of a good decision is nearly zero — or very late, when a kitchen that looked fine on paper cannot produce the covers the business plan assumed.
