Refined, functional and flexible spaces designed to nurture creativity.
Our studio spaces offer a private sanctuary for creative work, while our buildings are social, supporting genuine collaboration and connection. We are proud of the authentic sense of community that flourishes within our spaces.
"Being a part of Netil House has truly been transformative for our business. We love the location, the light that pours in every day and the creative community around us. The vibrant creative community surrounding us is incredibly inspiring. In fact, we're so thrilled with our experience that we recently expanded our presence by leasing a second studio within the building. Collaborating with a fellow resident, we are transforming our new space into a versatile filming and recording studio. We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to grow our business within the walls of Netil House."
"We have been at Hackney Downs for 6-7 years, and it is the tranquil residential atmosphere and strong sense of community that keeps us rooted here. The area offers a perfect blend of productivity and a relaxed environment, allowing for a high quality of life and ample outdoor space. Being part of this creative hub has led to numerous fruitful working relationships. From exciting collaborations with talented artists like Alec Doherty to partnerships like our ongoing projects with Eat Work Art, our time here has been enriched by these connections."
"I first came to Hackney Downs Studios for a fabric presentation at sustainable fabric supplier ESCE-Tex. There was a fun event going on in the lobby and the studio's atmosphere caught my eye. I viewed quite a few studio spaces in Hackney, and I chose HDS for its artistic energy and communal environment. It feels like a hidden gem in Hackney, and its creative, welcoming, and relaxed energy is a natural extension of the Blue Nude brand."
"As a textile designer, natural lighting is vital to my work when choosing materials and combining colours.When I first walked into my studio space, the fantastic wide windows were defining for me to choose Netil as my work place. The 24/7 reception is another essential. It's great for receiving orders at any time and it makes me feel safe during late working hours."
“Being in a multimedia place with different creatives doing different stuff is so important to me seeing my job is so solitary. The life here is great, it feels much more dynamic and creative compared to other parts of London.”
"I love the community aspect of Netil Market, everyone helps each other and supports what you do. I love the fact that I'm in a space where I can find stores offering clothes, accessories, sunglasses, and more that I truly want to purchase! Plus, the food and wine here are absolutely incredible!"
"It’s nice to have neighbours and a strong support network at Netil House. It’s a relaxed environment with a strong sense of community and most people around us have a creative enterprise which is nice to be a part of."
"After the isolation of the pandemic, the studio has been immensely beneficial both socially and for our work. We have started to collaborate with various artists within the studio and hope to continue this on every project we do moving forward. Being in and around other creatives is really inspirational."
