And they had to do it on a budget. The office shows what's possible with more dash than cash. It's 1,600 square feet of clean, bright studio space. And the walls, which have only a rough base-coat of plaster, are still bumpy and coarse. We decided to leave those things the way we found them.
Furnishings are simple, too.
We fastened them to the wall and used standard stanchion shelving to support the open ends. We added perforated aluminum inserts around the rear and side edges. That, plus the extra shelves and bolts, give the impression of greater stability. But it's not all assembly-line austerity. Pieces of Depression-era pottery in muted colors are displayed proudly.
