The owner of an artisinal bakery asked us to design a new facility that would be economical to build and to cool, and that would provide an enjoyable work environment. We designed a 4,410 square foot facility in which the mixing and baking rooms occupy a large wedge-shaped volume constructed of inexpensive concrete block. Low south windows let in cool summer night breezes as warmer air escapes through high north windows. The bakery is filled with natural light throughout the year.
