For this project we were asked to design a unique space under 1200 sq. ft for a musician, artist or writer and dedicated solely to his or her's art. This here is my musician's Columbia River Gorge Retreat where Brandon is able to come and relax while also having the freedom and space to write and record music. This space is a unique experience that begins at the entrance to the space as shown in the first image. The glass tubular like forms that are protruding both inside and out of the space are remittance of the light moment model I experimented with in an earlier study as explained above. This idea of the tubes that filter in light from the inside and out are carried to the top story of my space (Brandon's Studio) which acts as a loft. As you are able to see in the other two images, this light moment is a very inspiring phenomena and thus is the reason why I placed them in Brandon's recording space. The energy of the light that is produced from these tubes is in a high up and dark area, making for a big impression and more importantly a perfect place for writing and producing creative music. The retreat includes two 88 sq. ft bedrooms (one with a full master bath), a kitchen/living space, a full public bath and two patios on the South side both over looking the beautiful landscape of the Gorge. The top half inner tube patio includes an outside wet bar and room for patio seating. The landscape around the retreat allows for vehicle parking and also aircraft parking, as my musician is also a US Army helicopter pilot who owns planes of his own. This is truly a space that one can escape to spend time with family, friends and or himself. This space has all the amenities he needs, just not excessive amounts.
