About this space

A single open studio with moderate ceiling height, exposed beams and a timber floor; an area rug defines a dedicated performance corner. Large industrial windows deliver plentiful natural daylight and fitted curtains allow basic control, while a timber-slatted wall provides textured backdrops.

Room features: On-site soundproofing reduces external noise for recording. A PA system and speakers provide monitoring and playback, and available lighting plus photo and video equipment support production lighting and capture.

Best for: Music recording and small live sessions, filmed interviews and commercial photo shoots.

What sets it apart: A full-size grand piano occupies the performance area and is available for live sessions and on-camera use.

Wonderful space and great customer service from the venue owners. We used the studio to film interviews and it was a lovely place to film in with plenty of space and natural lighting. Justin was very attentive and accommodated a last-minute request which was very much appreciated. Location is perfect as it's easily accessible via public transport and the studio itself is next to the station. There are other businesses operating in the unit, and you can hear them from the studio, but the doors are pretty sound-proof so we didn't hear any outside noise once they were closed. Highly recommend this studio if you're looking for a place to film in!
