Tim,

Your dream studio should be about 30 feet along the north side and about 24 feet deep. Ceilings should be about 20 feet high. Floor should be wood. Your north window should be centered and start about five feet off the floor and go to the ceiling. It should be 10 or 12 feet wide. It should be equipped with blackout blinds so you can adjust the light.

You want a location where nothing outside your window casts reflected light back in. No nearby buildings with white walls or metal roofs! Big trees with lots of sky above make the best studio window neighbors, just as long as the trees are not too close.

A window is better than a skylight. I've had both. Actually, skylights are fine. I'm just being picky.

While you're at it, add a fireplace and a grand piano.

Presto! Studio heaven.

Bill
