“STUDIO183X” is a franchise concept with the mission to create a global platform for independent and emerging designers and artists, and simultaneously empowers female entrepreneurs to run a STUDIO183X concept in their city. STUDIO183 began as an experimental pop up concept and now represents an array of independent designers and artists with a focus on unique one-off pieces, small quantities and upcycling design. Events complement the concept with interdisciplinary launch events that provide networking opportunities for Berlin based creatives. Why the “X”? Because STUDIO183X serves as a concept store and space with a seemingly endless array of collaborative opportunities.
