Ideas come to life in our studios, and maintaining a positive environment is
The Studio Environment
crucial for everyone’s success. The studio environment is a shared place for
students to be creative and conduct their studies. Please follow the following
rules and etiquette to ensure a productive and respectful atmosphere.

Respect for Others
Always be considerate of your classmates working around you. Keep
noise to a minimum and avoid any unnecessary disturbances.

Cleanliness
Take pride in our shared space by cleaning your area and the studio
every Friday. This routine ensures a fresh and inviting space for the new
week. Properly dispose of waste and return all materials and tools to
their designated spots.

Food & Drink
Only water in closed containers is permitted in the studio to protect
our creative works. Other beverages and food could pose risks to the
integrity of everyone’s projects and are therefore not allowed.

Workspace
Respect each other’s creative space. Do not use or move anyone’s
projects or tools without their permission. Keep your personal items
organised and out of communal spaces.

Studio Hours
The studio is open daily from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM. If you find the studio
locked during these hours, the porter staff can provide access. Please
always respect the space, as failure to do so may result in being asked
to leave by a staff member.

Guest Policy
Guests are not permitted in the studio under any circumstances to
ensure the security of work and personal belongings of all classmates.

Personal Equipment:
You are responsible for securing your equipment and valuables. Ensure
your dedicated toolbox is attached to your desk and locked whenever
you are not present in the studio. The college and staff are not liable for
the security of your personal items.
