Studio 1 is a large studio suitable for many types of productions. We have a wide selection of set walls with jacks that you are free to use to extend the kitchen sets or create room sets. It has its own 10’ x 10’ truck height dock.
It’s popular for commercial food shoots since it has two full camera-ready spaces with more room around them for camera angles, lighting, crew, and clients, than other ready-to-shoot kitchen day-rental studios in Toronto.
Full build and Ikea part specs are available by request for client modifications. The system includes Sektion SE cabinets, Utrusta hardware, Axstad matte white facing, Karlby oak veneer countertop, Maximera MA - white/Havstorp turquoise cabinets, Bagganas handles.
Besides Ikea options, there are a handful of local suppliers that provide different finishes, handles, and accessories for the Sektion system, such as Allstyle Retrofit and EasyAfford
