Fogo Island Artist Studios in Canada by Saunders Architecture

The Shorefast Foundation and the Fogo Island Arts Corporation commissioned Todd Saunders of Saunders Architecture to create a series of six artists’ studios on Fogo Island, which is located outside of Newfoundland, Canada.

The organization is committed to preserving the Islanders’ traditions and rejuvenating the island through the arts and culture. This project was ideal for Saunders, who happened to grow up in Newfoundland.

These buildings represent three of the six studios, which are located on beautiful, dramatic sites. I think I could be creative here, what about you?
