Kingsland — Office Interior Photography for Unknown Makers

Set in the heart of Shoreditch, this project sees a four-storey former gin parlour reimagined as a vibrant new home for Plastic Pictures, an award-winning multimedia company. As office interior photographer in London for this scheme, I was commissioned by Unknown Makers, working in collaboration with Atelier Parfait, to document the completed refurbishment of the townhouse.

The layout was designed around the client’s dynamic workflow, with dedicated areas for focused work sitting alongside open, collaborative spaces. A cosy bar and informal relaxation zones encourage impromptu brainstorming, giving the office a strong sense of community — qualities I aimed to capture throughout the shoot, floor by floor.

Original brickwork and historic timber windows have been retained and exposed, set against dark oak flooring for a warm, textured contrast. Lighter wall panels, louvres and glazed partitions bring balance and light to the space, while dark-framed joinery creates quiet, focused nooks for meetings alongside the more open, creative areas.

Photographing across four storeys meant finding a consistent visual language that could still flex from floor to floor — from the energy of the open-plan work areas to the calmer, more considered feel of the meeting rooms and bar. Natural light played a big part throughout the shoot, filtering through the original windows and helping tie the historic shell of the building to its new, contemporary fit-out.

Every floor of the building tells its own story, reflecting the adventurous spirit of a company built on creativity. This shoot was about capturing that variety — the interplay between the building’s historic character and the confidence of its contemporary design, and a project I was glad to spend the day photographing.
