Watermill Artist

The Watermill Artist Residence is a small housing complex that sits within a larger campus of the Watermill Center where artists come every year from all over the world to collaborate and study all aspects of art and design, from theater, painting, sculpture, and more. The residence hosts a number of student living spaces on the upper floors, with their own studio space on the very top floor, a communal kitchen and dining area on the lower level, as well as a multi-function space that can fully open up to the outdoors for displaying art, hosting events, even becoming a backdrop for theatrical performances in the summer months. The classical gabled form sits within a vessel that retains the earth on all sides. Steps terrace down into the vessel forming theater seating.
