His & Hers Urban Work-Play-Creative Space & Art Studio


The concept of nesting is not a new one, but we find our customers are more serious about it than ever. In fact, we often receive requests to design entire rooms that are dedicated to our customers’ needs to work, play and be creative in their homes. Not only do these work/play rooms minimize costs by avoiding the need to rent space elsewhere, but they also maximize home and family time — a win/win, all around.

Here, you see a his-and-hers art studio that we created for two customers’ Roxborough residence. As the photos reveal, the interior finishes of the studio — such as hard-wearing plywood walls and floors, and a simple HVAC system — were chosen with the idea of this being very much a work space. But you’ll also notice that much attention was given to incorporating beautiful and inspiring features, such as plenty of natural lighting from oversized windows and skylights, big glazed doors, and an attractive, earthy stucco exterior. Other exterior features, including a sunny yard, an original slate sidewalk, and ample off-street parking, unify and complete this lovely space for our satisfied homeowners.
