This new facility for the local arts community includes flexible space for workshops and the client’s own book bindery and studio. Four dilapidated garages in a conservation area were converted and extended using few materials. A new green-glazed brick wall references the Victorian vernacular for non-residential buildings on street corners, usually pubs. The extension took the rhythm of the old garages to create vertical columns of glazed bricks protruding from the elevation.
