GPF Lewis is delighted to announce the successful completion of a major redevelopment project at Studio 3 Arts, a renowned arts center located in the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham. The project has significantly revitalized the center's facilities and enhanced its capacity to serve the local community.

As a leading construction company, GPF Lewis played a pivotal role in transforming Studio 3 Arts. The project involved the demolition of existing internal walls to create a more open and flexible space, as well as the construction of a new extension using sustainable straw bale methods, providing a modern entrance and a second studio area.

To enhance the center's exterior appeal, GPF Lewis installed a new entrance canopy, undertook landscaping works, and commissioned local artists to create unique pieces for the walls and flooring. These artistic elements further enrich Studio 3 Arts' connection to the community and its commitment to promoting the arts.

The redevelopment project has been a resounding success, providing Studio 3 Arts with a state-of-the-art facility that is better equipped to deliver socially engaged, co-created arts programs. The center is now poised to continue its mission of fostering creativity, collaboration, and positive change within the community.
