Office to let in Whitechapel Road, London E1

An ideal home for creative companies and start-ups, E1 Studios perfectly straddles East London cool and City slickness. Bold designs and contemporary art cover the communal walls, with colourful tiles and black and white painted stripes. Black brick walls and matching concrete flooring make for a wonderfully modern space.

Built in the late 1960s as warehouses and showrooms, it later became a storage unit for the likes of the V&A National Art Library and the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England's archive. In the 1990s the building was used as a language school, before relaunching as E1 Studios in 2015.

Whitechapel and Aldgate East tube stations are just moments away, with a host of local buses also available, as well as cycle routes and nearby car parking.
