Collingwood Studio

This development of an existing Edwardian style shopfront included restoration of the historic building and reinstatement of their use as retail shopfronts, plus the addition of a separate studio workshop at the rear. The studio is concealed behind the existing historical facade and accessed via a rear laneway. Our design concept for this ‘hidden’ building was to create a simple rectangular shell that relates to the scale of adjacent warehouses with only the laneway entry point to the studio being marked by a full height timber facade with a full width sliding door and screened window above.
