A dedicated hub for digital creatives and businesses in Eastbourne. We provide a professional, community led workspace where we foster growth through collaboration and provide inspiring pathways for local talent to thrive.
To discover how you can join our community and view our current studio availability, please visit our dedicated Space and Studios page.
The Lookout provides flexible co-working desks and private studios on the second floor of Eastbourne Town Hall, tailored specifically for the local digital and creative community. Our secure, key-fob accessed space offers a professional environment for residents, including dedicated sponsored desks designed to help young enterprises and small startups find their foothold.
We maintain a transparent and fair pricing model to ensure an inclusive atmosphere focused on growth rather than complex tiers. While the building is currently undergoing renovation to meet modern hub standards, we invite you to view our plans and explore how our rooms can adapt to your creative needs.

We believe that the best work happens when people feel a true sense of belonging and stability. Unlike traditional flexible workspaces, we do not offer hot desking. Instead, we provide spaces for you to truly inhabit, allowing you to settle in and call this creative hub home.
Whether you are seeking a private studio or a dedicated desk within our vibrant hub, you will find a workspace rooted in mutual respect. By sharing our resources, we have created a sustainable model that allows our industry to grow together.
Why not join a professional community that values integrity, accessibility and the simple joy of working in a space that is truly yours.
The Lookout project is a joint venture between Richard Jackson of Plume Films and Russell Bryant of 8Bit. This partnership brings together decades of experience in high-end production and digital community building to create a dedicated home for the local creative industry.
Richard is a director and animator whose studio, Plume Films, is known for creating bespoke visual content for world-class organisations. With a portfolio that includes work for the Tate, Netflix, and the Unicef, Richard specialises in blending artisanal animation techniques with cinematic storytelling. His involvement ensures the Town Hall provides the professional infrastructure and creative standards required by top-tier visual communicators.
Russell Bryant & 8Bit
Through 8Bit, Russell has become a key figure in the mobile gaming scene. He brings a deep understanding of what a community-driven bottom up growth methodology can achieve with limited resources. His technical insight and focus on social connectivity will ensure that the hub becomes a modern, adaptable environment where digital creators can find both the tools and the network they need to thrive.Â
Together, we are transforming this historic Victorian space into a multidisciplinary hub. By combining our backgrounds in cinematic production and digital innovation, we aim to provide a professional sanctuary for creatives that celebrates both heritage and future-facing craft.
