Emerson Studios

Emerson Studios Southwark will be a temporary drama studio for the Royal School of Speech and Drama. The studio premises will be used during the construction of new buildings on the schools main campus. Two open plan office spaces in the basement and ground floors have been changed into studios for training actors. The ground floor space will be used as a small scale theatre with lighting and sound. The basement contains several small studios each with accoustic treatment. Both floors required mechanical ventilation because of the number of students using the space at once. The space will have an industrial look with exposed trunking and ductwork.
