Project Case Study
Artist Live-Work Loft & Material Palette
Found Space
An abandoned textile mill warehouse became a live-work studio for a ceramicist. The intervention was deliberately minimal: removing false ceilings to reveal original timber roof trusses, sandblasting brick, and inserting a steel mezzanine that barely touches its host.
The Material Palette
The material choices are a direct response to the client's craft: kiln-fired brick, raw steel, aged teak, and Kadappa stone. Every surface has weight and history — the architecture is itself a study in material honesty.
