Design and Layout

It is arranged with a series of stores and supporting spaces clothing the existing WC and kitchen counter, separating them off from the main office volumes in white-painted studwork into which a shape has been intuitively cut to reveal the otherwise hidden studs within. This shape has become an emblematic form, a form that is the semiotic extension of our work and practice, the icon of personality we feel ourselves to be.

This contrasts with the bright yellow floor, edged in dark green, that brings positivity and vitality to all that use the space, setting a tone of happy endeavour to any creative venture that uses it.

Community

A central motivator was to foster a close and caring community of practitioners and markers. At present we have two practices sharing our space: LSD Architects and Tommy Jay Architects.

Alongside working pracitce, we run an event space, hosting shows and talks, including our own 5x5 series - a format where we ask 10 practitioners to speak on 1 project of interest for 5 minutes with 5 slides.

We also open up the studio for community uses in the evenings and weekends to local groups who need space for workshops, talks, networking, and other events.
