Conceptual Artist Studio by Didier Fiúza Faustino

A studio building was designed for conceptual artist ATELIER JEAN-LUC MOULÈNE. Located in the Normandy region of France, designed by Didier Fiúza Faustino, the architect wanted to create a space that allows its occupants to adjust the circulation and layout of goods according to their needs.

Didier Fiúza Faustino also developed this building from everything needed by its residents ranging from movement, work, and creation to meet the needs of artists in terms of production or use of tools. In addition, a more private space is also provided for artists as a conducive, comfortable, and calm reflection and rest space to create new perspectives that can be taken in work.

The studio building consists of a series of identical volumes distributed in constant offsets consisting of five indentations. Each of these volumes has a translucent sloping façade facing north, and the roof ending in a continuous frosted glass wall will produce maximum natural lighting. At night, the opening of the building's open windows is reminiscent of a collection of solar panels exposed to light, and this is an attempt to bring a wide view of nature into the building. The building covers an area of 265 m² plus an entrance area and access to a mezzanine of 100 m².

The walls and roof are made of prefabricated wood-framed caissons mounted on reinforced concrete slabs and covered with a waterproof black rubber membrane. Architects deliberately use this matt black leather to turn buildings into shadows and make buildings like invisible buildings. In addition, the lighting in this studio was specially designed for ateliers by Fiúza Faustino.
