What is a studio?
A studio is space to make things: shoot photographs, record a podcast, or work with your hands. Some are hired by the hour for a shoot or a recording, others by the month for a bench, desk or room of your own.
Equipment varies a lot. Some include lighting or microphones, others are dry hire, so check each listing.

Questions
Is Lumen free to use?
Yes. Searching and enquiring cost you nothing. Operators pay us, not you, so there is nothing to pay Lumen.
How do enquiries work?
Pick a space and send an enquiry. Lumen comes back with advice and options, and passes your request to the operator. Nothing is booked until you agree terms.
How do I pay?
You pay the operator directly, or through a secure payment link we send you. You only pay once you are sure.
Can I see a space before I commit?
Yes. Say in your enquiry that you would like to view it first, and we will help arrange it with the operator.
