Studio Space Two

The above ground studio space has been designed to be a large and isolated space, with a similar aesthetic to the Australian outback. It uses similar colours to Sidney Nolans work, allows open views and has been modelled to resemble Australias monolithic rock formations. There are skylights and glass floors to allow light into the studio space and through to the gallery space, allowing an open workspace and pleasant work environment.

Gallery Space

To save space the gallery has been cut into the side of the mirrors. Two separate spiralling paths go down the surface with wall space to allow paintings for exhibition. There are rooms located on each path to allow larger exhibitions and installations, and there are windows around the mirrors to permit light and allow a view of the outside. Glass extends over the surface of the gallery, which allows light in, as well as people to walk across the surface and look down on the space.

Studio Space One

The idea of behind this space is that of transparency. Being an underground space the light is reflected down via a series 45 degree mirrors, allowing an unprecedented about of natural light into a space made entirely of glass. The stair in this space extends from the surface, spiralling around the conical studio space twice, leading to an open area at the base where the artist would work.
