@curatedbywanza: Designed by Bethan Rayner and Naeem Biviji of Studio Propolis, this 500m² studio was built to evolve into a gallery as its artist-owner's practice grows. Raised on columns above a flood-prone site among acacia trees, its long double-height volume is shaped by north-facing saw-tooth roofs that draw diffused light deep into the plan. True to the practice's gesamtkunstwerk approach — designing, manufacturing and constructing every element themselves — materials favour local sourcing: raw pre-cast concrete waffle slabs, rough wood-float rendered masonry toned to the acacias, polished in-situ terrazzo, and steel-framed doors built from recycled ship timber. Studio Propolis fabricated the joinery and ironmongery in-house, and grew the landscaping themselves.
