Our studio design services
A complete solution that reflects your brand
We offer a complete solution that guarantees broadcast studios that reflect your brand and your approach to broadcasting.
Broadcast studio design
We prioritise understanding the show or programme’s identity and the message it aims to deliver, then create the perfect set: seating arrangements, background decor, LED walls, lighting, depth perception and overall ambiance.
Set manufacturing
We use the best materials available within the project’s budget and application, whether a long-running show needs sustainable, high-quality materials or a quick production needs lightweight, portable sets. Our craftsmen then bring the designs to life.
Installation
Our installation crew includes carpenters, electricians, mechanics specialising in rotating sets, and broadcast and audio-video installation professionals, so video walls, LED screens and lighting are flawlessly integrated.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What is broadcast set design?
Broadcast set design is the design and construction of the physical and LED environment a programme is shot in: desks, backgrounds, video walls, lighting and finishes, built so the studio looks like the channel and works for the cameras and the production.
Do you design and build TV studio sets in the UK?
Yes. VM Cloud is a UK broadcast set design and build company based in London. We have delivered sets for broadcasters in the UK, France, Turkey, Ireland and the Middle East, from single presenter sets to full LED studios.
Do you manufacture and install the set, or only design it?
We do all three. One team designs the set, our craftsmen manufacture it, and our installation crew of carpenters, electricians, rotating-set mechanics and AV professionals fit it on site, including LED walls, screens and lighting.
How long does a broadcast studio set design and build take?
It depends on the size and finish of the studio, but a project runs from consultation and 3D model through manufacture to installation. We agree the schedule at the design stage so you know the timeline before the build starts.
