the project entailed the insertion of a floating mezzanine into the seven-metre vaulted studio space. syte architects designed the new floor so that it kept free of the perimeter walls and the tall studio doors. glass floor panels run along two sides of the mezzanine to maintain the sense of openness.


meanwhile, a new staircase was conceived to be an integral part of the large storage unit and read as one entity. the spacing of staircase treads established a module which formed the rhythm of the whole storage unit. these developed into a series of vertical fins that could be inhabited in various ways for the storage of paintings and materials. double depth storage is available under the first flight, slimming to a single depth under the upper flight. the entire storage unit is constructed from birch-faced plywood.
