A studio is a place where people manifest their ideas. In many instances, artistic studios are a place to work combined with comfortable settings to add a semblance of home. In this gorgeous studio, the artists incorporates various sentiments that reveal a history of artistic endeavors while maintaining a comforting ambiance. It’s a sanctuary of artistry and practicality.
Studios are inadvertently designed to make the artist feel inspired. In this studio, remembrances of travels and people met along the way grant the artist true inspiration not only in their work, but with the studio décor as well.
Organization and efficiency are vital in order to maximize creativity and motivation. A white backdrop as in white walls and furnishings help to stimulate energy; hence the long white console, white framed paned glass, and white appliances in the cooking and cleanup area. Projects then benefit from a workspace that is well thought out and inspired by the artist’s life. In addition, wall colors should stimulate artistic qualities without interfering with the artist’s professionalism. The photographs, artwork, and decorative pieces placed throughout the workspace are an epitome to that.
Another unique element is the studio’s usage of exposed brick and white tiles. What makes this brick and tile combination so unique are the imperfections and roughness of the brick surface, and the way they have been set on the wall space. Metal chairs, a wooden table, and floor with a cement appearance, merge together and create a fresh, well designed layout.
Easy to access materials in a studio is imperative to keep the flow of work and creativity in unison. The improvised desk, office chairs, task lamps, in this workplace are compact and within reach of the artist as they hone their skills and manifest thoughts into tactile dimensions. When designing a studio/workspace, one should determine what furniture and storage needs are required to manage their work. Are long tables needed to acclimatize the environment? What about design planning, sketches, sample-boards, or meetings with clients? What about tech devices? The main working chair should be have ergonomic components to ensure long-term comfort. This studio manages to combine all the aforementioned factors while remaining urbane and functional. Various utensils are placed in trendy cabinets, papers are stored in practical file cabinets, and steel floor shelves are used for keeping numerous implements and to complement the overall design of the studio.
A touching aspect of this studio’s design are the personal effects. The studio displays photos that reveal the love of life that the inhabitants possess. It displays the beauty and purity of art and how it personally effects those who are enamored by it. It is a wonderful homage to those who have a passion for art and a regard for serenity.
