WIL Placement week 1 (cakes)

Finding myself with out a Internship this year by my own choosing I have embarked on the WIL placement 'Freelance' project. This year it is with the Royal Melbourne shows Art, Craft and Cookery group where our small group (9) will battle it out and create a design a tote bag and tea towel to be sold at their Pavilion in September at the show.
After being breifed we wrote a short research doc and proposal to be presented to staff at the RASV head quarters in Ascot Vale.
After all this it was now all on my shoulders to create what i invision for the tote bag and tea towel….going up against 9 girls in a female dominated area of the show i better think of something that will look different and stand out from the crowd.
This has got me thinking to what i would actually like my own studio to look like if I was a freelance textile designer.
What type of space, where would it be  and would it just be me or a shared space.
I think that I would most probably start out with a home based studio as not to spend to much money on my rent and more time on developing a solid foundation of clients and I think as most work will come in via On-line qoutes and client visits having a home studio wouldn't be a disadvantage.

Here's some photos of some interesting studio spaces.
