Going Round Again

This is another home in the round that I designed quite a while ago now.  This one had a backstory:

It belongs to a couple - an artist and a musician.  They each want studio space but don't want it cluttering up their living space.  
So this house was built two storeys, but without a first floor in it.  A mezzanine level has been added across the back 2/3rds.  The house is entered from a deck into a large open plan kitchen and utility area and adjacent dining area.





Behind the dining area the lounge is partially divided by the placement of sideboards and an open corridor leads to the spiral staircase to access the mezzanine and the back door.  





Behind the kitchen the master bedroom has a luxury ensuite bathroom and the windows are set high in the walls to allow light but privacy.  


The mezzanine provides two studio areas - an open art studio over the lounge and a closed and soundproofed music studio over the master bedroom.  Guests can be accommodated on the mezzanine level too.
