An Artist’s Studio in the Woods of Washington State by Eerkes Architects
Located in Washington’s Puget Sound region, the Scavenger Studio is a 693-square-foot artist cabin designed by Les Eerkes of Eerkes Architects. The modern structure resides in a clearing surrounded by woods and features lots of windows to frame the green views. Much of the cabin was built using free materials that were salvaged from homes scheduled to be demolished.
The layout includes a ground floor kitchen and living area, while the second level houses a window-wrapped sleeping loft accessed via a steel staircase.
The studio rests on a six footed foundation which helped keep construction costs down. Along with HardiePanel, the exterior is clad in charred T1-11 plywood for a darkened appearance.
A red panel next to the bed in the loft slides down for ventilation and for better views.
Simple, unfinished plywood is used on the ceilings, masonite is used on the floors, and painted drywall covers the walls for a minimalist look.
The Scavenger Studio was completed while Les Eerkes was Design Principal at Olson Kundig, who is considered the Architect of Record for the project.
