Radio Studios
We designed our first radio studio in 1976, this was for Beacon Radio and created the first presenter-driven studio in the UK and set a new benchmark in commercial radio.
Since then we have successfully designed and project managed dozens of commercial radio stations in the UK and Ireland, including Ocean Sound, Xfm, Kiss 102/Kiss 105, Star FM, Piccadilly Radio, Capital Radio, Classic FM, Magic FM and Radio City. For Kerrang! Radio we demonstrated that studios can be funky as well as functional. Their designer studios house the latest in art and design and incorporate huge windows whilst retaining their essential acoustic properties
Whether you’re looking for a traditional studio or the latest in contemporary design, VA has the multi-disciplined design expertise to create your unique visual, audio and technical environment, enabling you to push the boundaries for commercial radio of the future.
Need to Relocate?
VA can take care of that too; as we have demonstrated on several projects for Piccadilly Radio, BRMB, Red Dragon and Radio City. Site selection, lease negotiation, space and facilities planning are just a few of the ways we can help, providing you with a complete relocation management package
From new licence applications, advice on suitable buildings, budget structuring, setting time scales, project managing the creation and delivery of the station from licence award to launch.
