There’s one element of any property that immediately makes a space special. That element is the view. In beautiful Bay Roberts, Newfoundland, there’s no shortage of gorgeous views overlooking the bay. However, having the view is only half the battle, you still need to take full advantage of it. For artist Andy, that meant creating a space where he could comfortably take in those views while working on his paintings. The solution was obvious: a cliffside artist pod. That’s where Randy Spracklin and the Rock Solid team came in. Together, the team rallied to overhaul a bland backyard and create a cliffside artist pod worth of those stunning Newfoundland views.

Keeping It Simple
When designing a space such as this, it’s easy to overdo it. For both Randy and the homeowners, they knew that the design of the space was not the focal point. Instead, they opted for a simple white interior with panoramic windows to showcase the Newfoundland beauty all around them. As a designer, you can’t outdo mother nature, so sometimes it’s best to just let her be the star.
Cliffside Creativity
When taking in the exterior of a project that values the view so much, it’s crucial to remember that that building will be a part of that view. The team had a responsibility to create something that would add to the view as well as hold up to the challenging conditions found on top of a coastal cliffside. For these reasons the team stuck with simplistic designs that they could build strong and insulate well. Now this cliffside artist pod will be a beautiful addition to this stunning view for years to come.
