Not a rental studio, but a community space for people from the creative industry who regularly need a place to do what they do best: be creative. Meeting location, workshop space, photo/film studio, or simply a place to hang out, exchange ideas, or be on your own. Come as often as you need, there is a membership for it. Details below.

Equipment

The deal is simple: no plug, no problem. What we put on the shelf, we share — the same goes for our friends & family. We fix what we break.

If something is missing or broken, say so. The list grows with the people who work here.

Come as often as you need

Drop In

Two days a month.

Regular

Six days a month.

Resident

The studio as your base.

Friends & Family

Half day or full day, by invitation.

Studio Membership. Members share the studio. You book the days you need in our calendar; first come, first served, paid work takes priority. Equipment without a plug is free to use. Three levels, 275 € to 580 € a month.

Friends & Family. An invitation only rate for photographers and creatives, so that tests, editorials and very small jobs can happen in a real studio without a client budget behind them. Half day or full day, equipment without a plug included.

Both run on our booking calendar. Tell me roughly how often you would use the studio, and I will set you up. Friends & Family is by invitation — if that sounds like you, write anyway.

Right now there is room for two Drop Ins or one Regular. The studio only works if it does not get crowded, so the number of memberships stays small.

Immo Fuchs in the studio

Who runs this

Immo Fuchs, beauty & fashion photographer, based in Cologne. I just got the studio back. The idea of the whole building is to offer artists an affordable space to work and create art. In that spirit I want this space to be filled with people and to build a community around it.

That is the whole idea behind the membership. Not a rental desk with a key box, but a handful of people who share a good room and look after it. If you are curious, write me or come by and have a look. No commitment, no sales talk.
