The Studio of Bark Design Architects

on Tuesday, January 11, 2011

esigned an inspiring modern office spaces for their own emerging architectural practice studio located in Noosa Heads, Queensland. This workhouse is a flexible spaces for a design team of five to six people, a house for two people and a comfortable combination of both at times.

The Studio is perched on only four steel footings in order to slot between two mature Australian Eucalypts, the modular 20 metre long structure of steel portal frames is encased with openable and fixed glazing on three sides, layered with operable blinds, framing the broad views of the Pacific coastline.

The main linear work space was conceived as an open veranda with compactly scaled service spaces ’plugging in’ along it’s length. These service spaces include Kitchen, Laundry, Bathrooms, File and Drawing Storage and vertical circulation.

From the main studio platform, folded plywood stairs ascend past the large ‘shopfront’ window box, displaying models of past and current projects to a mezzanine level which contains spaces for architecture books, quiet reading, sleeping and bathing.
