House of Vans London

#lighting design #experience design

The House of Vans London is a new mixed use creative venue for Vans enthusiasts and those interested in skateboarding culture. It has been established as a place to participate in the cultural lineage of skateboarding that has defined the Vans brand since 1966, combining skateboarding, art, film and music. The new venue includes an art gallery, ‘Vans labs’ creative spaces, screening room, live music for 850 people, a premium café, numerous bars and a three tier indoor concrete skate park. The lighting was designed in close collaboration with Tim Greatrex Axchtects, to complement and enhance the unique vaulted space of Waterloo and accentuate visitor experience, while keeping on a tight budget.
