White Building, London

The White Building is a converted industrial structure in Hackney Wick that houses artist studios, exhibition spaces, and communal areas. The structure spans multiple floors with open layouts designed to support flexible creative uses.

The building opened in 2012 as part of an urban renewal project transforming the area following the Olympic Games. It was designed as a catalyst for artistic and cultural growth in the neighborhood.

The building served as a gathering place where London artists worked, displayed their creations, and collaborated on projects. It shaped the neighborhood as a center for creative work and artistic practice.

The site sits within walking distance of the Olympic Park and is accessible by foot or public transport. The open layout allows you to move freely through different areas without fixed routes or required tours.

The building hosted countless spontaneous interventions and experimental art projects that went far beyond traditional exhibitions. This type of unconventional use made it a magnet for artists wanting to push boundaries.
