Brief
The intent was to avoid a room full of small solutions. The studio needed one clear organizing gesture that could support different uses across the day.
Compact Studio is a study in making one room behave with more discipline. The project gives the longest wall enough intelligence to hold work, storage, display, and rest.

Case notes
The case study is organized around intent, constraint, and the spatial decisions that make the project useful.
Context
With limited area and a narrow light source, the plan depends on keeping the central floor open and pushing complexity to the perimeter.
Strategy
- Make the storage wall the spatial anchor rather than a background element.
- Keep furniture light and movable so the room can change without visual clutter.
- Use material restraint to make the small space feel settled rather than sparse.
Materials
Warm white surfaces, matte timber, clay objects, and a low-contrast textile palette give the studio a working calm.
Gallery
Rooms in sequence.
Large views are paired with short captions so the page reads as a spatial walk-through, not a grid of thumbnails.
