The Loom Art Space

Project Outline

The Loom is a revitalised Victorian Wool Warehouse, providing 100,000 sqft of unique workspace for creative minds in the heart of Whitechapel. A ground floor ‘Walk’ invites you to come in and discover an Art Space, Café and social spaces.

The Loom Art Space comes to life in the ‘Walk’. It is a place to relax and enjoy. It’s where informal meetings, coffee catch-ups and lunch breaks happen, open to both our members and the public, it’s a place for the whole community. A light-filled atrium features a modern-day tapestry, a mural by Stuart Patience that playfully conjures up The Loom’s past life as a 19th century wool warehouse. Specially commissioned changing artworks are made by our friends and collaborators at The Cass. The Artwork on display is influenced by the building history, the new architectural interventions and the local area historic creative vibe.
