The open studio area is approximately 1000 sq. ft., has 14’ to 16’ high, interior insulated walls, wide double doors entry, south facing & secure windows, ceiling fans, and gas furnace heat. It has been acoustically treated using sound clouds, staggered stud walls, sound absorbing sliding doors with industrial rubber flooring covering wall-to-wall within the open space.

Broadband internet and numerous hardwired nodes throughout the studio. This location is also one of the officially designated Shaw WiFi hotspots in the region. The building complex has ample free parking in the area and is near the Marine Drive Skytrain, a bus loop, and the Oak Street Bridge. Our entrance has a small private parking area and is situated in a fairly quiet spot. Alarm monitored. In the past decade, it has been a home to designers, animators, painters, programmers, musicians, and a prop builder. We’ve hosted numerous events from VR forums, educational workshops, orchestral rehearsals, biomechanical research studies, drone development camps, film sessions, and motion capture productions. It continues to be utilized for research, product development, and academic sessions.
