HACKNEY PICTUREHOUSE


to rent – there are a lot of artists and freelancers working in the area, and this is now a perfect location for them.


How eco-friendly was the project? We recycled as much as we possibly could from the old building and have also introduced some interesting prod- ucts. For example, the dark reddish kebony timber floor in the Hackney Attic events space is a soft wood that has been treated with a bio waste product to become a hard wood. It looks great, is sustainable and is very hard-wearing.

What have been the highlights of the Hackney Picturehouse project for you? It’s been a real highlight working so closely with the client, because you can see that they are passionate about what they do. Also the mix of cinema, arts, entertainment and culture within the building was something that I could easily relate to – it’s the kind of place I like to go, rather than to a blockbuster-type cinema. I’m also a Hackney resident so it was very exciting for me to be working on my local cinema. l
