Assembly Studios integrates sustainability into every part of its design, from water management and local sourcing to public transit and green spaces. Built with long-term environmental impact in mind, the studio sets a new standard for what sustainable film production can look like.
Assembly Studios was developed on the site of a former General Motors plant, incorporating extensive material reuse throughout construction. By removing impurities, the project repurposed concrete into durable new stage floors and roads throughout the property.
Structural materials such as steel, concrete, and lumber were sourced locally from Georgia suppliers, reducing transportation emissions and supporting regional economic sustainability. This approach helps lower the overall environmental impact associated with construction.
Assembly Studios uses native Georgia trees and plants to create natural habitats that support local wildlife and boost biodiversity, creating a more welcoming place for both the land and its inhabitants.
Assembly Studios features two on-site retention ponds designed to support both environmental management and production needs. The pond in the park area naturally manages storm water runoff, protecting local waterways and sustaining the surrounding green spaces. A second pond, located within the studio area, serves as part of the water management system and also functions as a “wet stage”.
