Drive in to Dalston Pier studio’s multi-functional space.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n Dalston Pier studio is a multifunctional space in, no surprises, the heart of fashionable East London and it\u2019s big: really big. Described as a \u201cdrive in\u201d studio, not because it shows movies for rock-n-roll teens wearing leather perfectos in hot-rods to watch (though wouldn\u2019t that be a nice slice of Slimane-does-Americana?), but because, with 2260f2 of main space, you could quite literally drive a car quite comfortably into it \u2013 should you want to\u2026<\/p>\n It\u2019s all minimalist white-brick walls and steel-framed ceilings, with big skylights flooding the place with natural light (a perfect back drop for, well, anything really). But if spaces as clinical as Patrick Bateman\u2019s apartment in American Psycho <\/em>aren\u2019t your thing \u2013 though they definitely should be \u2013 then those skylights close up for a black-out effect so you can pretty much do whatever you need with the space.<\/p>\n Obviously there are all the amenities you would expect from a fashion studio: steamers, hangers, sandbags<\/em>, various props and, of course, Nespresso machine for essential caffeine boosts when those last minute shoots get stressful. It\u2019s not just for fashion projects though, the cavernous space does well as an exhibition location (a clean backdrop for canvases and larger installations) and is a great place for popups of all shapes and sizes.<\/p>\n
