What We All Have In Common: The Forks

Number TEN has been the lead architect for the Forks Market for over 16 years, providing consultation services including market planning and improvements as well as the design for dozens of retail and food service kiosks and support spaces. Number TEN worked closely with the Forks to develop and execute a new design direction for the market, beginning with the The Common interior foodhall, and has continued to refresh other areas including additional restaurants and an event space.

Number Ten’s design for the Outdoor Common extends the Forks Market’s beverage service outside creating a central outdoor gathering space with a lively ambiance and views of the surrounding heritage site.

All details were meticulously thought through for aesthetics and function, necessitating custom design solutions. A wood bifold door enclosure secures the back bar and prominently displays the Common logo. Wall mounted beer and wine taps along with the transparent beer keg display showcase the craft beer and wine offering.
