Studio SG
The open space featuring a central column that supports the lowered beams of the ceiling of an industrial building becomes a neutral container for an artist’s studio. The crossed arrangement of the beams, rotated by 45°, is echoed by the position of the new vertical partitions – not full in height – creating a sort of “pinwheel” around the central pivot of the single pillar, a useful expedient to subdivide the space into distinct functional segments organized on two levels. The loft, most of which is open to the open space below, contains a continuous bookcase that follows the perimeter of the balustrade. The remaining area on the upper level hosts a more private zone, separated from the rest of the studio by large fixed windows facing the two-story void.
The fixed furnishings are in gray ash wood, while the floor surfaces are in cementitious resin on the ground level, and rubber on the upper level.
