Room for a Playwright
Invisible Studio, Hants, 2020
A new studio for a playwright to allow him to work during lockdown and escape the confines of a domestic dwelling, this project is conceived as a prototypcial low-cost replicable workspace
It uses components that are entirely standard and available from mainstream builders merchants and agricultural suppliers, including the corrugated sheet cladding and flashings, gutters, windows and internal shuttering plywood linings. There are no 'specialist' or bespoke items, reinforcing our interest in the ordinary and in the architecture of the everyday.
