Oxford House Virtual Tour
Historic Venue Documentation with 360° Photography
Grade II Listed Community Arts Centre
Oxford House in Bethnal Green is a historic community arts centre established in 1884. This Grade II listed building houses a 120-seat theatre, Victorian chapel, dance studio, café, and rooftop terrace, serving as a vital community hub in East London for over 140 years.
The virtual tour provides comprehensive 360° documentation of the venue's unique spaces, created to support venue hire marketing and showcase the building's architectural heritage. Each space is captured with interactive navigation, allowing potential hirers to explore the theatre, chapel, and other rooms remotely.
The project demonstrates how 360° virtual tours serve both commercial objectives – enabling venue hire clients to assess spaces remotely – and heritage preservation goals by documenting historic interiors for digital archival.
