Versatile Studio Space for Photoshoots and Events.

Book this Chabanel studio as a content studio and lookbook production base rather than a customer-facing pop-up, because the built-in cyclorama, lighting rig and sound and video equipment mean a brand shoot can be lit and shooting within an hour of load-in, and the basement level removes the daylight variability that derails outdoor-facing schedules.

The operational detail that does the real work here is the combination of private entrance, private parking and elevator access across 1,500 square feet, which lets a crew move rails, seamless backdrops and equipment cases in discreetly without negotiating a shared lobby, while the fitting rooms, garment racks, stock room and kitchen turn a one-day booking into a self-contained production unit with talent holding and catering handled on site.

It suits emerging to mid-scale contemporary labels in apparel, denim, streetwear and accessories that shoot e-commerce and campaign imagery in volume and need a reliable, industrial-neutral box with exposed beams rather than an architectural statement, and we would be honest that luxury maisons seeking a heritage address or a press day venue with street presence should look at browse all spaces for a ground-floor retail unit instead.

In our experience with the Garment District, the studios along Chabanel fill first in the pre-season production windows of late January and late July when Montréal brands are shooting the next collection, so enquire six to eight weeks ahead, confirm loading times before committing since the industrial buildings here operate on weekday freight schedules, and plan crew and rig requirements early with our production and build team given the ten-day maximum lease ceiling on this address.
