ANTHEMOLOGY STUDIOS

Northbrook, IL 

​

We transformed a residential basement into a sleek, high-performance studio tailored for a professional recording artist. The design features three main program areas: a control room, a smaller studio, and an expansive main space built for both recording and gatherings. Minimalist acoustic baffles add both a functional and aesthetic element to mitigate the low, acoustically sealed ceiling, while internal windows maintain open sightlines between all rooms. Complete with a custom ambient and laser lighting system, this studio offers a highly flexible environment designed to inspire collaboration and creativity.
