Welcome to Celeste Studios!
Located in the heart of historic Gastown, our studio is nestled in a beautifully preserved heritage building featuring exposed brick walls, soaring ceilings, and original hardwood floors. Perched on the top floor, the space offers stunning views of Gastown and the North Shore mountains through multiple oversized windows, filling the room with natural light throughout the day.
Formerly an office, the 2,000 sq. ft. space has been thoughtfully transformed into a bright, open-concept studio and event venue with endless creative potential. The private, in-unit washroom has been recently renovated for your convenience and is not shared with other tenants.
Gastown is one of Vancouver’s most iconic neighbourhoods, rich with character. Within a 5-minute walk, you’ll find charming cafés, renowned restaurants, vibrant bars, and stylish boutiques—all set against cobblestone streets and historic architecture, including the famous Steam Clock.
The Space
The studio is long and open, with a natural division on the left side where the bathroom is located. The kitchenette includes a sink, microwave, and mini fridge for your use. Guests have exclusive access to the full space. Please note the stairwell is shared with other tenants—gathering in this area is not permitted. The rear stairwell is for emergency use only.
While furnished, the studio is designed to be flexible and customizable. You’re welcome to rearrange the space to suit your needs, using any of the available furniture:
-4 couches
-3 accent chairs
-Multiple side tables
-Coffee table
Furniture may be moved, but must be lifted (not dragged) and returned to its original placement after use.
Additional furniture available for rent:
-Large foldable tables
-Black high-top cocktail tables
You're also welcome to bring your own décor and furnishings, provided no holes or damage are made to the walls. Please keep in mind the studio is located on the 4th floor and there is no elevator, so plan accordingly for larger or heavier items.
