STUDIO III, SPRING 2019
HIDDEN IN THE MEDIEVAL BASTILLON OF FLORENCE, ITALY, THIS MODERN ART GALLERY AND RESIDENCE HIDES UNDERGROUND AND FASTENS WITH ITS TUSCAN SETTING. THIS “FRACTURE” DESIGN CREATES A SPACE WHERE A GROUP OF POTTERY ARTISTS LIVE AND WORK COLLABORATIVELY. THE TRANSPARENT FACADE ALLOWS NATURAL LIGHT TO FILL THE STUDIO, WHILE INVITING TOURISTS INTO THE EXHIBIT SPACE.

THIS MATERIAL PALETTE IS COMPRISED OF WOOD, STONE, GLASS AND STEEL. EARTH TONES WERE INSPIRED BY THE SITE’S NATURAL SETTING IN THE TUSCAN HILLS OF FLORENCE. THE “FRACTURE” THROUGH THE STONE WALLS AND ALLEYWAY SEPARATES THE ARTISTS STUDIO SPACE FROM THEIR LIVING SPACE.
