Studio Spazio

Nestled within the garden of a semi-detached house, Studio Spazio's Workshop Garage in a Garden is an exercise in structural clarity and spatial openness. Designed to accommodate two parking spaces and a workshop, the compact building is composed of four imposing wooden panels. Despite its modest scale, these panels introduce a striking presence, establishing a dialogue with the surrounding trees and natural elements.


A defining feature of the project is its gabled roof, which rests crosswise atop the walls with only a single point of contact. This deliberate structural articulation minimizes enclosure, ensuring that the garden remains perceptible in all directions. Rather than segmenting the plot, the building fosters a connection between interior and exterior, subtly integrating itself into the landscape.


Inside, the workshop is reinforced by thin metal pillars that lend stability to the structure. Due to their refined proportions, these elements read more as furniture than as conventional supports, further blurring the line between architecture and object.


Ultimately, Studio Spazio’s approach challenges the typical notion of a garage as a closed, utilitarian space. Here, the architectural language emphasizes openness, materiality, and a seamless interaction with its environment, transforming a functional outbuilding into a spatially engaging structure.
