The idea
Phase 1 of Creatv Hub was self-funded and focused on essential building works to bring the space to life. This included creating functional creative areas, improving flooring and workspaces, and establishing the overall look and feel of the hub.
Phase 2 focuses on enhancing the experience for everyone who uses the space. This phase will improve accessibility, comfort and visibility, aligning the physical space with the Creatv Hub brand and website. Planned improvements include levelling and upgrading workspace flooring, enhancing the front of the building with graphics, signage, lighting and painted finishes to increase visibility within the community, repairing wall damage, improving insulation, and making the space more welcoming and accessible for public use.
What we'll deliver
- Improved branding and signage, cleaner experience for users
