The studio was required to be built under the mezzanine
of their design studios which had restricted ceiling height.
Use of natural daylight was requested to be maintained for
user comfort.
The studio was designed in Vectorworks 3D software, the individual
parts modelled in 3D and the fabrication plans generated with millimetre accuracy for manufacture off site (by Scrutton Engineering, Enfield, Essex). The walls and ceiling are cement impregnated woodwool supported by steel stanchions and beams, all vibration isolated on Sylomer pads.
