Personal retreats · A place to make
A timeworn workbench for drawing, making and imagining.
Organize a studio around a sturdy working surface and light suited to the task. A workbench, drawers and pots separate tools without hiding everything. Old objects offer visual character; whether they are fit for use depends on their condition. Leave a clear area for the project in progress.
