Japanese tattooing rewards artists who respect its rules, and irezumi done without a feel for flow and background simply looks off. At our Berlin studio Japanese work is Anton's, our lead artist, who has tattooed in the tradition for more than seven years and runs every consultation in English. He works with the classic subjects, dragons, koi, hannya, snakes, peonies and waves, and with the wind-and-water backgrounds that make a large piece hold together. Because Japanese designs are meant to grow, he plans flow and placement from the start, so a single motif can later become a sleeve or a back piece. The same artist tattoos in our Barcelona studio. Single-use needles, sealed equipment, English aftercare. Smaller pieces start around €70; sleeves and back work are quoted per session after a free consultation. Send your idea on WhatsApp for a consultation date.

From a small script piece to a full sleeve, every tattoo at our Berlin studio is drawn to order. The styles we get asked for most: realism, black and grey, Japanese, fine line, blackwork and new school. Old or faded tattoo? We plan cover-ups properly, with a lightening session first when the old ink needs it. Book a consultation

Great crew, they really know what they are doing.
I have been vegan for 15 years and look after my body, so I chose my studio purely on quality. They delivered.
Found them on Google, arranged a time that worked for me with the artist, and the result came out clean and beautiful.
