Vacant buildings shouldn’t sit empty.
Building a future where vacant spaces power local creative enterprise.
By connecting vacant buildings with ambitious local enterprises, we make spaces that work harder for property owners, create opportunities for creative enterprises to thrive, and deliver measurable economic value for local places.
Empty Buildings Cost Money
Vacant buildings create ongoing costs and liabilities.
Business rates.
Utilities.
Maintenance.
Security.
Deterioration.
The longer a building site empty, the more expensive it becomes to hold and the harder it becomes to justify.
At the same time, local creative enterprises struggle to find affordable, professional workspace in which to grow.
Spacemaker solves both problems through a commercially structured operating model.
A Structural Mismatch
Across the UK, thousands of square feet of property sit empty while local enterprises struggle to access affordable workspace.
We believe vacant buildings and growing enterprises should be part of the same solution.
SpaceMaker sits at the intersection of stranded property supply and underserved enterprise demand.
