The atelier is designed in such a creative approach whereby space multi functions the purpose. It incorporates a vestibule, a workstation, a versatile dining cum study, chief architect’s cabin, larder and a lavatory. The innards have been designed utilizing local reclaimed chill wood as one of the principal materials in an atelier.
The cabin of the chief architect is stationed at the occidental facade which was the only source for natural light and ventilation due to consecutive layout, hence it was required to be treated in a very judicious way whereby the passive cooling and daylight is maintained but simultaneously obstructs heat flow in the margin. Thus, implements adjustable vertical louvers, which have been coated with insulating colors at the rear end in the interiors which keeps things cool in summers. The low volt industrial collapsible led spot lights have been utilized in the atelier which alleviates the ambience at dusk. Thus the elements employed abbreviates the operational cost while working hours in the stretch. The interior of the atelier contributes significantly to reduce CO2 emissions due to the innovative conviction of design whereby, green and recycled temporary local construction materials which could be heated, cooled, ventilated and lighted more efficiently are employed.
The movable shelves, door and drawer details of the decor, flippers, mural at the fore ingress, have been created from waste wood surplus and the surplus of metal corrugated sheets was resourcefully utilized in the door and partition designed for general access. Expense efficient, customary, local methods and labor were implemented for the detailing in every nook and cranny of the atelier.
