Creative Sanctuary Reinvented

The Delta Studio at the MacDowell Colony, set within a 350-acre artist retreat, embodies the spirit of creative solitude. This renovation expanded the studio to include full live-in facilities, enhancing its year-round usability while preserving its artistic soul. This project not only provides a rejuvenated space for artists but also integrates sustainable practices, ensuring minimal environmental impact and optimal creative expression.

Project Highlights:

  • Functional Enhancements: Addition of a kitchenette, full bathroom, and screened porch.
  • Energy Efficiency: Implementation of mini-split heat pumps and a new solar array to transition to renewable energy sources.

Awards:

  • 2018 AIANH Excellence in Sustainability Award
