Landscape Interface Studio, in conjunction with the
London based SME Shared Assets received funding from
Creativeworks London to develop their collaborative project,
“Limehouse Cut pilot project – linking place and creativity”.
Funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council
(AHRC), the Creativeworks London ‘Creative Vouchers
Scheme’ is an initiative established to enable London based
small and medium sized enterprises develop unique and
innovative short-term, collaborative research with academic
partners.

The project aims to develop a methodology that provides  grounding for creative re-imagining of the Limehouse Cut as a shared local asset. The methodology will address challenges of creatively engaging people in underused and unloved ex-industrial sites, paying special attention to the history and identity of place, its environment and character.  This is a project that is entirely rooted in its locality. Its focus will be on how best to develop new networks and connections around the Cut, and on developing tools and methodologies for bringing local people and creative businesses together sharing knowledge and inspiration.

Poplar and Limehouse, the neighbourhoods surrounding the Limehouse Cut, have the potential to provide infrastructure and space for London’s creative businesses, especially as prices rise elsewhere. This project will look at how these neighbourhoods can retain existing light industry as regeneration happens, and examine how the creative industries can support this process but taking care to retain distinctive qualities of place rather than gentrification. Once developed, this methodology could be applicable to other ex-industrial areas of London looking to attract and support creative industries while retaining and building on their distinctive local identities, and ensuring benefits accrue to local people.
