Residential Design Honorable Mention Studio RED Architects 4318 Mildred Houston, Texas
Project Description Within a 20' x 20' footprint, we were able to design a studio apartment with a sleeping area, a full bath, a kitchen, and a transformable office space with amble closet space for storage. The space served as a studio apartment, during the summer months and holidays, while used as an artist's studio for the remainder of the year.
The aesthetic desire was to create a structure that was a departure from the house in style, so that the client would experience a sense of leaving one environment – the house – and entering into another – the studio.
The color palette for both the exterior and interior was to be nondescript, thus calling for a muted simple color palette. The most important thing was to allow the volume of the space be illuminated and transformed with natural light through the course of the day with minimal distraction.
