A studio for four ceramicists with a gallery space at ground level. The studio is connected to a large, wood-fired kiln via a steel gantry.

The diagram is a series of concentric, rotated squares, which accommodate utilities and circulation in interstitial zones. The inner square is positioned such that primary views are captured through a number of protrusions. Building materials reflect this place of tactile production; insitu concrete and handmade tiles form the primary walls. The studio is then cloaked in a fine steel mesh.

The project demonstrates the way in which productive typologies can invigorate and permeate dormitory suburbs. It is the result of an introduction of easements to suburban lots on the fringe of the CBD. Laneways are introduced into the centre of blocks, allowing for subdivision and rear lot access for small businesses. The result is a network of active, pedestrianised laneways, mindful densification and a decrease in commuter congestion
