A 250 m² artist's studio with glass roof and 25 m² terrace close to Place d'Alésia in the 14th arrondissement. The street was opened up in 1922, the same year in which the workshops were built. A door with keycode entry system opens onto a corridor part of the communal areas, which connects to a landing beneath a glass roof and two of the commonhold's workshops.
The double entrance doors lead into the dining area and open-plan kitchen, as well as the main reception room.
A sliding door opens onto a first bedroom with bookshelves, cupboards and roof windows. A wooden spiral staircase provides access to a second duplex bedroom with hardwood flooring, which connects to the first floor via a door. The staircase is followed by a door leading to the bathroom with its storage units and skylight.
On the right, a set of sliding doors opens onto a clever little sanitary area - with washbasin and toilet - whilst providing a link between the bathroom and the kitchen. A set of locks ensures protected access to the bathroom when guests are staying. The kitchen is open to the dining area and features optimised storage units and a range cooker.
The workshop, a photo studio, has retained the original equipment that was used to change the backdrops. To the right, there is plenty of storage space, while to the left, a long workspace with desk and bookshelves benefits from the light pouring in through the glass roof. This main space has a floor area of roughly 83 m², with a height of 7 m under the glass roof and a ceiling with additional roof windows. The structural wooden beams are exposed and the flooring is of laminated timber.
A metal spiral staircase links the different levels. On the first floor, a mezzanine with wide strip hardwood flooring contains the open-plan master bedroom, followed by a sitting room with storage space and a brick fireplace. Between the two, a door opens onto the above-mentioned duplex bedroom. The U-shaped mezzanine on the left has been converted into two bespoke walk-in wardrobes plus a large shower room with washbasin and separate lavatory. To the right is a passageway with a metal handrail running along the wall beneath the glass roof, while a metal step provides access to the terrace, which measures almost 25 m² and has a composite laminate floor.
On the second floor, there is a bedroom with sloping ceilings, a glass roof that extends over the entire wall and a roof window.
The basement of the workshop, which is used for both commercial and residential purposes, contains the workspaces of the artists currently in residence: a photo laboratory, an office area, a room for storing materials (which also serves as a meeting room), a large office with storage space, and a laundry and boiler room.
Almost all the floors are of straight strip hardwood, some of which are painted white, except for those in the shower rooms and the basement workshop, which are tiled or covered in waxed concrete.
