Inspired Artist Builds a Quiet Studio Underneath a Bridge Overpass In the Heart of Valencia, Spain

In search of a quiet studio in Valencia, Spain, former plumber/furniture artist Fernando Abellanas decided that the underside of an overpass between two concrete pillars was a perfect refuge spot. He very cleverly built a adjustable framed wooden box, put it upon a rail which ferries the box via a crank and pulley system over to the wall. Once at the wall, the box joins with a waiting desk and chair and unfolds into a studio.

Plumber-turned-furniture designer Fernando Abellanas has built himself a studio that acrophobes wouldn’t want to visit. Abellanas has constructed his workplace under a bridge in Valencia, Spain, and it perfectly blends into the urban setting.
