Knight Frank lets Bath Road Studios, Bristol, to two more firms3rd October 2012

Knight Frank has reported that two more firms have moved into the new Bath Road Studios offices created at the ITV studios building in Bristol’s Bath Road.

IT support company Signal Networks has taken a five year lease on the 1,773 sq ft Zone 9, while The Pilates Studio has leased a 1,037 sq ft ground floor studio, also on a five year lease.

The Pilates Studio is new to Bristol, and follows the success of the company’s initial Studio in Taunton. Founder Karen Pearce said: “We are hoping to create six new jobs in Bristol fairly rapidly.

“We had a careful look at property options in Bristol before choosing Bath Road Studios, which combines fresh and trendy space for our Pilates gymnasium with an excellent location and lots of free parking.”

Signals Networks provides IT consultancy, security and technical support, and is moving from the nearby Paintworks development.

Modern suites and offices ranging from 400 sq ft to 30,000 sq ft have been created at Bath Road Studios following a £1.2m refurbishment project by Cube Real Estate earlier this year.

The striking contemporary offices were designed by the award-winning architectural practice, Stiff & Trevillion, which also created the design concept for Jamie Oliver’s Jamie’s Italian restaurant in Park Street, Bristol.

The new space is being marketed by leasing agents Knight Frank and Jones Lang LaSalle with quoting rents from £12.50 per sq ft.

Joanna Crofts of Knight Frank said: “The success of these offices at the ITV studios building is a further boost to the city’s credentials as a hotspot for creative and media businesses.”
