Introduction

Sydney Studio is an experimental pavilion for a private residence in the north of Sydney. The 2 storey steel, glass and sandstone building was designed by Undercurrent Architects in 2009

Overview

The building is characterised by its oversailing roof shells that resemble fallen leaves, held loosely together by a structure of twisted steel beams with an enclosure of moulded glass walls. At its base is a platform of sandstone quarried from site. The design’s striking and unusual forms are influenced by the wild Australian bush.
