Mainyard Studios Hackney Wick Makers
A maker-focused building on Wallis Road in Hackney Wick, run by Mainyard Studios in partnership with the Creative Land Trust. Spread over two floors with high ceilings, it houses maker studios, creative studios, music studios and a coworking area.
A home for people who make things
Mainyard Studios Hackney Wick Makers is at Curie House, 80 Wallis Road, and was created by Mainyard in partnership with the Creative Land Trust. It is built for creative business owners who make things with their hands, with tools or with machines: fashion and textile makers, artists, printers, designers, content creators and musicians.
The building is spread over two floors with high ceilings, and each studio is yours to customise. Fill it with workbenches, rails, canvases, lighting rigs or recording gear, and bring the dog too, because the building is pet friendly. Alongside the maker studios there are creative studios, soundproofed music studios, a coworking area with dedicated desks and a lounge corner, and a bookable meeting room.
With the support of the Creative Land Trust, many of the maker studios are let at a reduced rent, and there is an application process for those spaces. No private studios are listed as available here right now, but coworking desks and the meeting room can be booked, subject to availability, and the Wezoo team is happy to check with Mainyard Studios for upcoming studios and the reduced rent application.
