A family’s memories of a garden informs the brief for this project. The requirement is for a compact, free-standing studio to be constructed at the end of a suburban garden. The building will provide two views. To the front, a large bay window looks out on a tree planted in memory of the client’s father, while a second window on the northern side will overlook a park, a view which had previously been hidden.

Our intention is to develop a design that is sensitive to the site’s past, but also offers a new perspective on the garden.
