Why Businesses Choose Design District

  • "I am a Design District superfan; the people in this neighbourhood are world class. The Design District is an oasis of calm and creativity in one of the busiest cities in the world. It's a place where the team can recharge, find inspiration, and push the boundaries of what they can achieve."

    Mihai Toma

    Founder of New Genre

  • "Moving to Design District has given RÆBURN an opportunity to think differently about what we need from a studio and what the next chapter of the business can look like. What I particularly enjoy is being surrounded by people working across different creative disciplines. There’s a real value in that proximity - the conversations, unexpected connections and exchange of ideas that happen when designers and makers are working alongside one another. For RÆBURN, it feels like a very natural place to continue building an ecosystem around craft, creativity and community, while making space for experimentation and future projects."

    Christopher Raeburn

    Founder & Creative Director at RÆBURN

  • "Because ON takes a design-minded approach to their work, they wanted a space fit for building, connecting and supporting other creative businesses. Design District was a natural choice, and has been the perfect home so far".

    "The shared facilities (rooftop yoga anyone?) are brilliant. We recently shot a big project in Design District and look forward to collaborating with other DD creatives in the coming months. It's a fantastic place to work".

    Creative Director at Nic & Lou

  • "We've just moved in and are already falling in love with the office and the community."

    Joyce Ding

    Co-founder & Director at Brut Tea

  • "What I love about being based at Design District is being surrounded by so many different creative disciplines. Fashion can easily become quite insular, so there’s something really energising about having designers, artists, architects and other creative businesses all working around you.

    For Fabrika, it also feels like the right environment for what we do. We’re a working manufacturing studio, but we’re part of a much wider creative community, and I love that people can walk through Design District and discover that clothes are actually being developed and made here in London."

    Karyna Sukha

    Founder & Managing Director at Fabrika London

Meet our architects

When designing the district, our chosen eight architects prioritised natural ventilation, high ceilings, north-facing lights, and pedestrian movement, to create a healthy and happy workplace. Our brief was to create a space that they would like to work in themselves.

Behind the UK’s world-leading creativity lies a growing crisis: too little space for too many ideas. Our new research uncovers what’s driving the shortage, and how we can change it.
