Acadia Summer Arts Program (ASAP) Artist’s Studio

The Artist's Studio is a 20- by 32-foot building with a large, elevated deck. The simple wood-frame structure is clad with common industrial materials, including cement board panels, ribbed plastic glazing and standing-seam metal roofing. The interior is bound by juxtaposed L-shaped walls, one eight-feet-high and one twelve-feet-high. A volume enclosed by sliding plywood panels contains a bathroom and kitchen. The plane of the metal roof slopes from high corner to low corner, opening up a triangular clerestory on all four sides of the building and creating a dynamic sequence of elevations.
