This well-lit space is perfect for a gallery. Found in Hackney Downs Studios’ busy community section, which also features a cafe, bar, bakery, kitchen, and events area, this space should find itself with a near-constant stream of visitors. A floor-to-ceiling glass frontage helps provide excellent lighting for the space, while its clean white walls are the perfect showcase platform.



The Crowd



Like other areas of East London, this northern part of the borough of Hackney is growing steadily more upmarket while retaining a sense of community. The busiest times for the area are on the weekends, when visitors from throughout the capital come to let their hair down at pubs like the Shacklewell Arms, the Star and Brewer’s Bar, but there should still be a steady flow of visitors in the week, especially in the evenings, as locals come to relax and mingle. Hackney Downs park itself, adjacent to the studio complex, is a firm favourite with locals in summer.




Meet the Neighbours



The complex features an exciting range of creative studios, bars and independent production companies, like illustrators Dom McKenzie and Ellie Foreman-Peck, film company Intraspectrum Studios and cocktail bar El Garito. Otherwise the local area is mostly residential, with some small local businesses, such as cafes, bars and restaurants.
