Our award winning studio is a purpose built eco-friendly live/work space in the Scottish Borders. Designed for creative people needing a temporary place to work on a project or run a workshop, or for anyone looking for a creative break in a unique location. It provides a living space as well as a work space all under one roof with self catering accommodation for up to 4 people.
Our Objectives:
To provide individuals and small groups with the space and freedom to develop their ideas and produce new work.
To provide a gathering place for collaboration and exchange of ideas among artists and across the creative spectrum, be it painters, musicians, sculptors, writers, poets or performance artists.
To forge links with UK and international artists.
The ‘working’ part of the studio has a floor area of approx. 40sqm and has wonderful light and space. There are large north facing rooflights and glass sliding doors looking out over the Border hills, with interior roller blinds to diffuse any unwanted direct sunlight. Immediately outside the glass doors is a timber deck which could be used as extended workspace for poetry readings, yoga, music...as well as relaxing eating and drinking.So far in the couple of year the studio has been up and running, we have had lots of interest particularly from musicians. The studio creates a brilliant rehearsal environment and some artists have even brought recording equipment to the space and recorded their albums there! So far we have had -Karine Polwart - This Earthly Spell -
Kim Edgar - Butterflies and Broken Glass -Check them out, they're both amazing albums! (see both Kim and Karine in our 'Top Friends').. Myspace Layout Generator-Layoutgen.com
