Designed for an artist, this studio building has a?floor area of 500 m2. It consists of a reinforced concrete skeleton-frame structure – left exposed internally – with reddish brick infill panels. An outer skin of grey facing bricks is drawn over the structure and articulated with a few carefully proportioned window openings. The principal element of the scheme is the two-storey-high studio space set at right angles to the living tract. The windowless studio receives daylight solely from above via two skylight strips. The number of materials used was reduced to a minimum. According to the architects, the studio was designed and executed in a period of seven months, with a?construction time of only 100 days.
