Located in Hackney Wick, this open-air courtyard space captures the area’s signature blend of industrial character and social energy. Designed around an outdoor dancefloor, the setting is both functional and atmospheric, with raw textures across.

The courtyard itself is arranged with a mix of high tables, open seating, and covered areas, creating a flexible layout that supports everything from casual gatherings to more music-focused events. A partial roof structure provides protection over key areas, while fairy lights and planted greenery soften the industrial edges, especially as the space transitions into the evening.

At its centre, a custom-built sound system anchors the experience, paired with DJ equipment and a dedicated dancefloor that gives the venue a clear musical focus. Table service and an on-site BBQ kitchen reinforce the social aspect, keeping the atmosphere fluid between dancing, dining, and relaxed conversation.

While the outdoor lot is the focal point, the wider venue includes additional spaces that can be incorporated into events, such as a café, cocktail bar, and indoor club room, allowing for a more layered, multi-room experience if required.
