Why hire an artist loft?
Traditionally, an artist loft is a top-floor living space within a converted industrial building, which includes an integrated artist’s workroom or studio. But nowadays, the term ‘artist loft’ has come to encompass a vast range of spaces, from photography studios to cosy flats, exhibition spaces to recording studios.
The artist’s loft has come to represent a romantic image of the urban artist, working and living in harmony in their trendy loft spaces. As a result, many creatives utilise this eclectic appeal to bring a stylish, artsy atmosphere to their projects. Whether you’re filming a music video, hosting an event, or conducting a photoshoot, artist lofts bring a level of warmth, intimacy and edginess that traditional venues can sometimes lack.
Ranging from rugged converted warehouses to the more luxurious, minimal loft spaces, when it comes to artist’s lofts, there are a wide range of styles and layouts that can accommodate different projects. Embrace your inner artist and get creative!
Checklist for hiring an artist loft
Define your requirements
Ask yourself what functions you need your artist loft to serve: do you want a cosy living space that you can use for a film or interview recording?

Different venues offer a range of different options, so identify your specific needs before beginning your search.
Establish your budget
There are a number of artist lofts available on Tutti that cater to a range of budgets. When setting your budget it’s important to consider other expenses such as photography or filming equipment, catering, and props and decorations.
How much space do you need?
This will depend on how large your team is and what you want to use your artist loft for. You can filter by minimum floorspace and check each venue on Tutti for their capacity guidelines. Remember to take into account how much space your equipment and set-up will take up.
