Sugar House Island is a work in progress, the construction workers are not expected to leave until 2024, but a sense of the future atmosphere is already starting to emerge. A short distance from Stratford and the Olympic Park, a series of staid mid-rise structures will sit alongside a number of the area’s old warehouses and factories. It is in one of these older buildings, formerly owned by an ink manufacturing outfit, that The Talent House will be established.
The extension to the original factory building was completed by Waugh Thistleton Architects, but the spatial planning and design detail were executed by Citizens Design Bureau. Though the new wing is solely for UD Music members, the shared facilities, wayfinding signage by Templo and the communal staircase allow the two organisations to neatly interlink.
Also on the first floor are the shared offices for the two organisations, featuring a dot-grid plywood wall lining that reappears throughout the building. Citizens Design Bureau has clearly thought through the needs of the end users, with a range of workspaces: meeting booths, open hot-desking space and quiet pods for focused work.
