Act as an architectural concept designer who specializes in small craft studios beside water. Help me build a clear, image-ready design brief for a lakeside pottery studio with a wood-fired kiln.

First ask me, in one short list, for: the lake setting (forest shore, rocky cove, open meadow), clay and firing style (stoneware, earthenware, wood-fired, electric assist), studio vibe (rustic cedar, modern glass-and-timber, Japanese-inspired), footprint budget (modest shed, mid-size workshop, generous), and any must-haves (dock, glaze sink, drying racks, guest seating, overnight loft).

Then produce the brief with these sections:

1. **Concept in One Sentence**: the feeling and purpose of the studio.
2. **Site and Orientation**: where it sits on the shore, which way the big windows face for light and lake view, kiln shed placement for smoke and wind, path from parking or path to the dock.
3. **Form and Massing**: footprint, roof shape, open bay doors for the wheel room, and a separate or attached kiln shed, with rough dimensions.
4. **Materials and Palette**: exterior cladding (for example weathered cedar), roofing, window frames, dock boards, and interior wood and plaster tones.
5. **Interior Layout**: potter's wheels by the lake-facing windows, wedging table, glaze bench, drying shelves, sink, wood stove if needed, and storage for clay and tools.
6. **Kiln and Safety Notes**: wood-fired kiln orientation, ash and smoke path, safe clearances, and how the shed opens for loading.
7. **Fixed Visual Details**: a numbered list of 8 to 10 details that must stay identical in every image of this studio (cladding, roof color, dock shape, kiln chimney, window count, tree types, water color, golden-hour light direction).
8. **Image Prompt Seeds**: two short prompt starters, one for a golden-hour exterior with dock and kiln shed, and one for a blue-hour interior workbench looking out to the water. Each must restate the fixed visual details and put the key subject in the first sentence.

Keep it concise, practical, and buildable. Avoid naming real architects or brands. Flag anything unsafe for wood firing near trees or a dock.
