Creative Spaces, Open to You
For the creators, brands & podcasters of the East Midlands and beyond
Nine purpose-built studios under one roof in Nottingham. Walk in with an idea, walk out with content that looks the part.
The problem
You're shooting in a converted garage, a borrowed living room, or a white box that looks like everyone else's. The content never quite looks the way you pictured it.
The good studios are an hour away in Birmingham. Hiring kit, lighting and a space separately is expensive, and you still have to set it all up yourself.
So your brand looks smaller than it is. You shouldn't have to choose between travelling for hours or settling for content that doesn't do you justice.
The solution
Nine purpose-built studios under one roof, each designed for a specific type of content. The podcast and gaming rooms come fully equipped, the content studios include lighting, and remote support is on hand for every booking. Pick your space and start shooting.

Booking a podcast room or the gaming studio? You don't even need a camera - they come fully equipped. No setup, no faff, no studios that look like everyone else's. Just a space built for the content you came to make.
Transparent pricing. No hidden fees. Remote support included with every booking. All prices include VAT.
You know your content could look better. You just need a space that does it justice, run by people who understand what you are trying to make.
Story + Space was designed by Christopher Bailey, a fitness photographer with 20 years behind the camera and work published in Muscle & Fitness. He has shot in hundreds of studios, so every one of these nine was built from the photographer's side of the lens, with the details that actually matter.
Not generic white boxes, but spaces with real character. A vintage New York boxing gym. A fully-equipped kitchen studio. A nearly 2,000 sq ft car studio. Podcast suites with soundproofing and multi-camera 4K. A loft flooded with natural light.
The podcast and gaming studios come fully equipped - you don't even need a camera - and remote support is on hand for every booking. You just need a story to tell, and a space that finally lets you tell it properly.
Yes. We launched in June 2026 and public bookings are now open. Founding member pricing is still available for the first 50 members - join the list to lock it in.
Nottingham, East Midlands. Easy access from across the region - we regularly expect creators and brands travelling from Derby, Leicester, Sheffield, and further afield.
It depends on the room. The podcast studios (The Round Table and The Gathering) and Ready Player One come fully equipped: cameras, audio and lighting are all included. The content studios (Cover Story, The Loft and The Bowery) include basic lighting, and you bring your own camera. The Pass, The Neon and The Bailey are dry hire with no equipment included. Additional equipment hire is available as an add-on to any booking.
Absolutely. That's one of the biggest advantages of having nine studios under one roof. We offer multi-studio day packages from £200 - shoot a podcast, product content, and lifestyle imagery without leaving the building.
Yes. We can handle editing, sound mixing, colour grading, captioning, and full podcast production - from raw files to publish-ready episodes with social media clips. You can book space only, or go end-to-end.
We offer four tiers: raw footage (you edit), automated edit (AI-powered with social clips included), producer edit (human-refined with custom branding), and retainer packages for regular shows.
Yes. The Neon, our car studio, fits vehicles and large-scale sets. The Pass, our kitchen studio, is fully equipped for food brand commercials. And with nine spaces available, you can run multi-location shoots in a single day without the logistics of moving between venues.
Simple. Tell us your studio and preferred time through the contact page and we'll confirm your slot the same day, with secure online payment. Instant online booking for every room is rolling out now.
Stop making do with garages and white boxes. Book a studio built for your content, turn up, and walk out the same day with work you are proud to put your name to.
