About this space

The Lounge at CTRL Studios Old Street is a relaxed, sofa-style studio set designed for podcasts, interviews, conversations, branded content and presenter-led filming.

At the heart of the set is a large screen positioned directly behind the seating area, allowing you to personalise the backdrop for your production. Display your logo, podcast artwork, campaign creative, photography, presentation graphics or your own branded visuals to create a set that feels completely your own.

The comfortable sofa layout creates a natural, conversational environment for hosts and guests, while the screen gives you the flexibility to change the look and identity of the set without having to physically rebuild it.

**Production-ready:** The Lounge can be configured with professional video, audio and lighting equipment, with high-speed Wi-Fi and an on-site CTRL Studios production team available to support your session.

**Perfect for:**
Podcasts & video podcasts • Interviews • Guest conversations • Branded content • YouTube shows • Social content • Presenter-led filming • Corporate content

**What sets it apart:**
The Lounge combines the comfort of a relaxed sofa setting with a fully customisable digital backdrop. Add your branding, artwork or creative to the screen behind your guests and make the set your own.

Additional filming, editing and content production services are also available through CTRL Studios.
