Cradled beneath a saw-toothed roof and vaulted beams in the heart of St Peters, the aerie is located high in the rafters of the old brick factory that is Tortuga Studios. As a collaborative and affordable creative space for artists, creatives, start-ups and SMEs, the aerie has over 430 square metres of light-filled studio space, dedicated hot desks, a 90sqm photographic studio and high capacity Internet network with an uncontended 50Mbps service. With splays of natural light, timber floors, views across Sydney Park and old warehouse bones laid beautifully bare, the aerie is born to channel rampant creativity, inspiration seeping from every rusted pipe and peeling truss, from leafy inner-city views and the pulsing arts scene that is St Peters.
