The Warehouse Studio is located in Vancouver, Canada
It's precise location is in one of the most interesting areas of the city, called Gastown, and it's nestled amongst shops, restaurants and nightclubs in the area. Concerts, sporting events, theatres and art galleries are all within a short walk from the studio.
Built by the Oppenheimer family during the gold rush in the 1800's, it's original purpose was a Klondike supply warehouse and it even served as Vancouver's first City Hall. It is now the oldest brick building in Vancouver with restorations to both inside and out that have retained the historical integrity of the original structure. The inside is a blend of modern amenities and state of the art recording equipment.
The WS started in the late 1987 in a basement of a house, and 10 years later, on July 9, 1997 we opened the doors at this Powell St. location. Studio 2 was completed on February 9,1998 and Studio 1 was up and running on October 18,1999. Technical and acoustic layout by Ron O Vermeulen.
We have 3 studios, located on separate floors, which are comfortable and spacious with lots of natural light, each has a private kitchen and lounge area.
We've created an environment that is comfortable, has a great vibe, and is very conducive to making music both for artist and producer/engineers and is also an incredible space for doing photographs.
