A couple of points spring to mind:
Would people be allowed to live (residential use) in a commercial warehouse building? Surely this is breaking the planning regulations? You'd never get permission to use the warehouse as living accommodation with subsequent ability to charge rent.

The 7 people all living in/using the studio are likely to be competing with each other. Sure, there's different markets - commercial product shots, fashion, glamour, portraits, but ultimately these guys are going to be living in each others pockets and chasing essentially the same business. Not a recipe for a happy co-operative life.
