The Singer's Studio occupies a room that gives directly onto the garden, with a big window that opens onto a colorful xeric version of a winding English border. The desk, adjacent to sunny south-facing French doors, visits the garden with every glance up from work. It sends an arm out to embrace the couch with drawers, desktop and overhead light shelf. Whimsically placed orange drawer pulls and a livid green desktop spark the otherwise restrained palette. The art over the couch was a gift from David Hockney.
