This well-respected photographer’s office housed an extensive back catalogue of work, but the space was uninspiring and wasn’t fulfilling its multifunctional potential.

A team of furniture builders were commissioned to help me create a robust system for storage and access – bespoke double-depth units for rolling plan drawers. Bespoke desks were also created in the same timber finish, with the drawers gaining blue Formica tops drawn from the cool colour palette.

A magnetic wall and lightboxes for proofs were created for reviewing, and a sanctuary space without making it dingy and when opened out, allowed for an expansive prep space for shoots adjacent to the main studio.

Along with the furniture designers, I worked with several other specialists to get the space right, including a lighting designer (to ensure hair and makeup artists could work with models freely) and air conditioning/heating installers to make sure it would be a comfortable temperature for crew and models all year round.
