Types of Studios

Islington Mill is made up of several buildings — the original Mill, New Islington Mill, and Unit 4 — each with a distinct character and suited to different types of creative practice. Our tiered pricing reflects the nature, size, facilities, and location helping us keep spaces accessible to a wide range of artists.

All studios are self-contained, with lockable fire doors and access to shared kitchens, bathrooms and amenities across the site. Both Islington Mill and New Islington Mill now have lifts for step-free access, and recent works have preserved much of the original heritage character of the buildings.
