Makespace will have a set of rooms in 17 Mill Lane. You can see more on this video which shows the space before it was cleared.
There's a layout diagram at Layout so we know which rooms we're talking about.
Current rough ideas:
- main workshop space (G24) could have benches "classroom style" and some space at one end (useful for day to day work plus speaker/demo events)
- the side room with double doors (G21) is most likely a separately-securable workshop for heavier workshop kit
- the square classroom could be a classroom or quiet work area (ok for reading, planning, computing, more than building)
- the mezzanine rooms (G25 and G26) could include a kitchenette and cafe style tables for talking/working
- the windowless "operations room" (G28) could be an office/secure store for Makespace admin
- Being windowless makes it ideal for using a projector for presentations, or for other activities where darkness is important (developing photographs?)
- the full height small room just off the main space (note no current direct access from main space) could be a library/store
But other ideas are very welcome!
There are also two areas underneath the mezzanine rooms - both the same width as the mezannine rooms but only around 3ft high. Some way to use these conveniently for storage would be great (but if we want to use them we'll have to pay for fireproofing; if we choose not to use them they can be left as is)
