The brief
Renowned internet phenomenon and multi million pound selling global artist, Mr Doodle has commissioned Hollaway Studio to design his private artist’s studio and Meridian Construction Services to deliver the project, in the grounds of his home in Tenterden, Kent.
The outcome
With our close working relationship with Holloway Studio, they knew this project required an experienced and reliable contractor, so enlisted Meridian to deliver the build.
The studio acts as both a continuation and a direct contrast to his house, a neo Georgian building. Here the studio is a conduit for Mr Doodle’s art to be used more functionally and everlasting. An enticing cube, the studio is covered in a metal sheet projected 100mm from the main building that wraps the whole exterior in laser cut doodle shapes created by Mr Doodle. This part of the design therefore reflects how the studio represents both space of work and inspiration to the artist.
The building faces north to south with solar panels on the southerly facing side and air-source heat pumps making the building completely sustainable. Steel stairs lead up to a mezzanine floor where Mrs Doodle works and from there additional stairs go up to the roof terrace from which the landscaped gardens and doodle maze that she has designed can be viewed in full ‘Doodle vision’.
