The workshops your craft deserves.
Three workshops in Limehouse and a cabinet shop in Bristol. Members don’t just rent a bench in one: they get into the others too, and more opens up as they move up.

What makes it Hone
Built to the standard you’d set yourself.
Four things that hold across every building, and the reason people who find Hone tend to stay.
The standard
Kit, rooms and layouts set up the way working makers would set them up, because a working maker set them up. Named machines, not a list of perks.
The company you keep
More than 150 makers, designers and founders who share work, borrow skills and bring each other in on jobs. A furniture maker next to an architect next to a jeweller.
Room to grow
Hot Maker to a shared bench, to a private bench, to a studio, across three buildings, without leaving Hone. When you need more room you move down the corridor, not across town.
Trades under one roof
A furniture maker, a jeweller, an architect and a product engineer in the same building, and work passing between them. A studio tenant has the makers down the corridor. A bench member borrows a skill from the bench next door. Things get made here that no one of them could make alone.
Three buildings, two cities
Hone Workspace is Hone Limehouse and Hone Tottenham in London, and Hone Bristol in Fishponds. The same standard at every site. What changes is the place, and the price.

Which space is right for me?
If you make products, prototypes or parts, the makerspace. If you make jewellery, the jewellery workshop. If you make furniture for a living, the woodwork shop. If you run a business that designs, plans or builds and needs a room of its own, a studio. Not sure? Book a tour and walk through all of them.
What does it cost?
Makerspace from £125 a month, jewellery benches from £190, studios from £645 all in, woodwork in Bristol from £220 and in Limehouse from £877 plus waste and sundries. Every price is on its page. No joining fee.
Do I need to be a professional?
No. Hone is for people making a living from what they make, and people on their way there. Professional means how you work, not how long you’ve been doing it. The entry tiers welcome people starting out; the woodwork benches and the studios keep a working edge.
How do I see it?
Book a weekly tour. Limehouse is Tuesdays at 3.30pm and Thursdays at 11.30am with Jai, Tottenham Thursdays at 10am, Bristol Thursdays at 4pm and Fridays at 10am with Austin. About twenty minutes, longer if you get talking. It’s booked the moment you choose a time, and there’s no pitch at the end.
Can I use more than one workshop?
Yes. Bench members use every workshop across our buildings after an induction. Studio tenants use the machine shops at member rates. Hot Maker members use the makerspace, with its metalwork and woodwork bench.
Do people stay long?
Most members stay for years, and some have been here since we opened in 2018. Studio tenants tend to stay longest, and it’s why woodwork benches rarely come up.
What are the hours?
24-hour access for shared and private bench members and for studio tenants. Hot Maker hours are on the makerspace page.
How do the contracts work?
Benches and studios are on a three-month minimum with two months’ deposit; studios are a rolling licence with three months’ notice. Hot Maker is rolling monthly with one month’s deposit and one month’s notice. Notice periods are in the agreement.
Is the induction included?
Yes. Every membership includes a general induction from someone who uses the machines every day. The large-format CNC needs separate training, charged on top.
Where are you?
