We have a highly creative and experienced team who are forward thinking and innovative.
My background in design, carpentry and touring theatre productions and Leah’s in graphics, painting and prop making is the perfect combination for a creative scenery building company. We began working from our studio in Stoke Newington. Soon running out of space, Tandem moved a bit further north into a new 5,000 sq ft workshop in leafy Waltham Abbey until Spring 2018. When an opportunity came to double the size of our workshop space and move out of London to Paddock Wood in Kent. We’ve sourced a team of skilled carpenters, metal workers, scenic painters, prop and model makers, CNC operators, labourers and office workers that all enjoy working together on new exciting projects. Our backgrounds and teams expertise is what has enabled the growth of Tandem Set and Scenery.
We are the leading Escape Room Set builders in the UK. Being at the forefront of this exciting game revolution and having the installations to prove it. We work with the game designers, adding their practical knowledge and creative flair to every project. Tandem has the capacity to build each game in their workshop, creating a life size Room Prototype that can be tested and reviewed over time. We offer full design, production and fabrication services for the film, theatre, the visual arts and immersive theatre industries. We genuinely love what we do and are excited about the opportunity to expand.
