The front door of Hackspace 1.0

The first Nottingham Hackspace was based inside the The Art Organisation. It started as just one storage room, but expanded into a small workshop with a larger office space. It had access to a shared hall that could be used for events and a large corridor that was converted into a small private cinema.

Location

The first Nottingham Hackspace (1.0) was based in inside the old police station on Station Street.

Layout

Michael Erskine used Sweet Home 3D to produce some nice floor plans. Here are screenshots of the rough wall/door outline using Tony's breakout area measurements.
