Design first, ink second.

A studio for black ink and clean geometry. Blackwork, dotwork, ornamental, the heavy solid-black pieces and the fine stippled ones. We treat every tattoo as a design problem: line weight, negative space, how it sits on the body and moves with it.

Nothing is freehanded onto skin until it is resolved on paper. Line weight and negative space are designed to your body, not improvised in the chair.

Method: Design first, ink second
Studio: Three artists, one drawing table
Booking: Design consult required

A drafting compass, black tattoo ink and a fine pen beside a geometric stencil drawn on paper — The piece, resolved on paper.
