The courtyard
workspace.
An existing ground-floor unit, a new purpose and a clear sequence of decisions.

The starting point.
The illustrative brief is to turn a lightly used unit into a studio with a welcoming entrance, a shared work area and a quieter meeting space.
The priorities are useful circulation, a cohesive material palette and a layout that can adapt as the occupants change.
Decisions before demolition.
- Understand the existing space. Record access, dimensions and services; identify the surveys and approvals needed.
- Agree the essentials. Separate required work from optional design details and establish the project boundaries.
- Coordinate the sequence. Resolve structural and service interfaces before finishes are installed.
A considered finish.
The proposed direction uses restrained surfaces, practical task lighting and defined zones. The aim is a coherent workspace with clear everyday functions.
At handover, the client would review finishes, operation of installed elements, remaining items and available care documentation.
