About this space

Gallery Showroom is a Pop Up Shop in Doodles, an intimate street-facing retail and event room defined by a flexible floor plan and adaptable seating.

Design: The interior has a compact rectangular plan, monochrome hand-drawn pattern wallpaper, a plain white ceiling with recessed downlights, and mixed hard floors softened by area rugs.

Features: The space includes a PA system with microphone and speaker, allowance for own music, and venue Wi‑Fi. The room is supplied with moveable seating and rugs that can be reconfigured for talks or demonstrations. The room is subject to a noise restriction during events.

Ideal for: Small creative groups seeking informal seated talks, workshops or product demonstrations in a compact, adaptable front-of-house space.

What sets it apart: A continuous wall of illuminated cubed shelving provides purpose-built display and merchandising space.
