Warner Bros. De Lane Lea (WBDLL) announced it will be moving from its current home on Dean Street to Ilona Rose House, Soho Estates’ stunning new development on Greek Street. Located over three floors of the building, this is the only purpose-built post production house in London and will be home to the UK’s largest mixing stage.
Kim Waugh, EVP worldwide post production creative services, said: “This new home for our team of multi- award winning talent will bring another level of service to the post production world in London. The size and quality of the stages are exceptional, and I’m delighted we are remaining within the heart of Soho’s vibrant and creative community. We can’t wait to open our doors next month.”
John James, managing director, Soho Estates added: “We are delighted that Warner Bros. is moving to Soho Estates’ Ilona Rose House. The essence of Soho is the creative spark, and this new West-End hub is a boost for London’s film industry. Ilona Rose House is a 300,000 sq. ft mixed-use development and we can’t wait to bring to life the diverse offering it brings to the area.”
