Bernat Klein Studio
Peter Womersley
High Sunderland near Selkirk
1972

The Bernat Klein Studio is a very fine sculptural late Modernist building designed by Peter Womersley (1923-1993) the internationally renowned borders based architect. The contrasting structural elements of bold horizontal cantilevered striated concrete join with finely framed vertical glazing to illustrate a monumental sensibility executed with sophistication and with great attention to detail. The studio design displays elements of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Falling Water, the seminal project which Womersley himself admitted inspired him to take up a career in architecture in his teens.
