Milk Studios is run by a journalist, Beatrice Newbery, and
architect, Steve Lawrence. After some experience writing from her own sitting
room, Beatrice already knew the miseries of home-working. Between them, they
hatched a plan to launch Milk Studios, enabling freelancers to leave their
homes in the morning and come to work among other like-minded people, in a
politics-free environment, and an atmosphere of both `fun and diligence.
