Playhouse East

This project was a full scale redevelopment of a 5000 square foot site into a creative hub that includes a theatre space, post production studios and a ground floor cafe and bar.


Blank Space helped throughout, initially with contract negotiations and the terms for the client as well as a strategy around how best to layout the site and optimising the whole building for its needs. I also assisted with the construction phase and all the compliance requirements as well and putting a plan in place for marketing and letting the spaces.

“Alfie has a deep well of knowledge. This was my first time taking on a project like this, and honestly, I don’t know how I’d have made it through without him. In just under a year, we transformed a dilapidated 5,000 sq ft building in Hackney into a thriving creative hub — home to a new writing theatre, multiple studio spaces, and a café that’s quickly become a beacon for local artists and residents. Alfie guided me through every stage, from structural works to brand launch. His support was invaluable.”
