Builder: Capozzi Building

A backyard studio for a family in Subiaco. Intended primarily as a space for the making and storage of art and as workshop.

Designed to capture natural light by day and to impart a soft glow at night.

Elevated timber panelling with folding operable shutters to customise the amount of natural light entering from the clerestory glazing and roof.

To complement an existing palette of materials — a white exterior, offset by the warmth of timber internally.
