Both movements reflect Teeple s role as a self-proclaimed unregenerate modernist . The colour of the wall shifts in a mysteriously cinematic way as the sun strikes the yellow wall behind it, causing colour to tincture the glass, or as a figure passing by on the other side becomes an animated, graphic event. The creative area is dominated by the pitch room, which opens and closes with surprising ease. As a closed entity, it is surrounded by newly light-filled corridors rhythmically defined by wide, vertical slots that continue across the ceiling. These slots accommodate strategically placed acrylic boxes that pull sharp, clean lines of light down into the corridor.
Colours here are white, blue and yellow.
Creative is cool. Life sizzles in the studio, however, an area that has experienced some reverse excavation, so to speak. Teeple Architects removed the former faux acoustic-tiled ceiling to reveal and release the concrete beams of the underlying structure. The newly excavated ceiling, a sunken space pushing upwards, is now painted the word filled comes to mind, so palpable is the colour a searing red whose redness is amplified by a glowing flood of ruby light. The result is a molten firmament dispersing a vivacious light that warmly veils the designers working here an effect they reportedly find life enhancing and deeply enriching.
