The Workshop
Schemata Workshop
The Workshop is assembled of prefabricated building components for optimized efficiency and minimum waste. There are two units in the building — in the first iteration the first story is an office; the second is an apartment. The building is elevated on concrete piers and cantilevers over an existing structure on-site. Only the existing building and concrete piers will remain after the building is relocated for its next lifecycle.
