According to the founder, Gridchinhall's archetype was formed by the image of suburban offices of architectural workshops and old merchant houses, on the ground floor of which there used to be little shops. At Gridchinhall, living space is combined with exhibition areas and workspace.[5] Gridchinhall's office is located in an old hut with five walls, moved to the plot of land during the construction of the art centre.[6]

Gridchinhall exhibits and sells works of both aspiring and established artists.[7] The art centre offers artists a workshop to live and work, and completed artworks establish the basis for personal and collective exhibitions.[8] Some works remain in the permanent exhibition of the art centre.[9]
