The Space

Apax warehouse is located behind High St and Bell St (entry from Garnett St) in Preston. The warehouse’s past life as a gasket factory in the 80's drafted its now austere yet unwavering charming interior, with pastel pink concrete floors, exposed concrete walls and an abundance of natural afternoon light.

The warehouse accommodates an 8 x 12 meter photography studio/creative space with 3-4m ceilings, an open-plan kitchenette, office space/lounge, two toilets and four meter wide roller door. Equipped with 3-phase power, Apax studio caters to a range of photographic needs.
