In a leftover 360 sf space at the lowest level of Paffard Keatinge-Clay’s iconic 1969 hippie-brutalist addition to the San Francisco Art Institute, the minimally-appointed bunker apartment affords artists the opportunity to use the studio apartment as a hotel room or a live-work residence.

Bathroom, kitchenette, bed, storage, and utilities are tucked away as tightly as possible into powdercoated steel-faced casework, allowing the room to be unobstructed.
