The skatehouse offers a genuine escape into an ultimate ‘man-cave.’ Designed to be a hobby vehicle showroom, a timber workshop, and a lounge space for the adjoining skate bowl, the building is raw and functional. It serves as a microcosm of the ideas present in the main house, delivered in a no-frills context. It is clean, simple, open and connected to its surroundings. The hard and utilitarian finishes are reminders that this is a messy working space, but there is a warmth, openness and ease of use to the space that encourages it to be occupied for other purposes. It’s a gallery amd a showroom, but one that you are encouraged to use daily.
