Default Live-in photo-studio a good idea?

Hello folks,

Im considering converting some of my warehouse into a live-in photographic studio to share with 7 others and wanted to know if this idea suits Heres the concept:

Half the building is an open-plan new refurbished living area with bedrooms bathrooms etc. The other half is a new studio with a load of nifty cutting-edge gear ( P65?) that is free for everyone in the building to use. (with a bit of co-operation) Would people be willing to chip in a premium rent for this. The extra rent to cover purchase costs would be less than one day studio and equipment hire!
Heres the gear:
Phase One P65 digital Back with Phase645AFD body with -
80mm f2.8D lens, 120mm f4D Macro lens, 4.5m F/W 600 & 800 cables,
2 x batteries, Twin charger, car charger, CF card with F/W reader, Cleaning kit, location trolley case
+2X Red-Head lamps
MacPro
Capture Pro software for Mac & PC,
Photoshop CS4
Large Format Printer – ( yet to be specified )
Id be chuffed if I could get some feedback on this as an idea before I start grovelling to the bank and hacking up my warehouse

Im thinking around 800 pounds pcm, zone 2, London

Cheers,

Alex
