Project description:
New workshop space for stained glass artist. The structure is completely made out of wood and stained black on the outside to blend in subtly on its green plot between the trees. The L-shaped workshop has a ‘butterfly’ roof pitching down in the middle. A glass window runs all along the façade, sometimes high up to catch indirect northern light, sometimes halfway to create intimacy and sometimes all the way day to create a close visual connection to the greenery. On the inside only the structural lines are stained black, the infills between are out of bare wood or glass, creating a graphic pattern reminiscent to the graphics of stained glass windows.
