About the Space

Welcome to our studio! A 700 sq/ft. Hard loft photography and creators space located in toronto’s historic east end. Originally a knitting and textile factory in the early 1900s, this industrial-age gem has changed several times since the second world war to be home to a furniture company, a greeting card manufacturer, and a pant factory. However in 1997, it was converted into live-work artist studios. This brick + beam third floor walk-up has many unique features including 14’ ceilings, original hardwood floors, beautiful textured backgrounds, boho-vintage styling, and large industrial north-west facing windows making it ideal for that diffused warm golden-hour natural light. Every corner and wall is a curated mini set with carefully selected items for you to arrange and rearrange however you want. We're constantly updating so check back often for the current look and vibe. This location is ideal for fashion, editorial, and portrait photography, along with commercial film shoots. But more than just a vibing photography studio, it is also your versatile multipurpose space that can fulfill almost any creative need. Welcome brands, photographers, influencers, creators and light-seekers! Find your light.

Great space. Clean. Well equipped. Had a couple instances where the birds were chirping right outside the window affecting audio but for what we were doing it wasn’t too bad. Jack was great with communication.

It was an amazing space and extremely accommodating host! Just beware that the street parking can be busy and main access to the space is through stairs. We had a great experience - look forward to booking again the future!
