Within the restored structure of steel beams, hardwood floors and ceiling joists, flexible workstations and custom-designed stand-up desks have been inserted, with a variety of breakout areas arranged for a balance of collaborative and private meeting spaces. Original timber floors and herringbone ceilings are celebrated, while newer storage pieces are plywood.

Lofty warehouse windows ensure the studio is naturally bright, with full-length fabric curtains filtering light and accentuating height. To keep things lively, splashes of bold colour and plants are sprinkled throughout. Amenities include a full kitchen – just like home – and bike racks for our hard-core urban commuters. Sustainability moves here are really about preserving the existing structure ensuring good natural light and airflow for minimal heating and cooling.
