Wigglesworth Architects for the husband
and wife team's house and studio in London.
Faced with a blank sheet of paper and
a couple of buildings to design, where do you start? Any novelist
will tell you: write about what you know. What we know is that
living and working from the same building means our two lives
(work and home) are never easily distinguished, but rather are
irrevocably intertwined. An architect's response to this might
be: separate the two physically; clarify zones; keep activities
distinct; apply order. The person who lives and works there knows
this is impossible. |
