Dark Academia Maximalist Studio w Natural Light

About the Space

December update: due to the busy holiday season, we are no longer accepting large-group productions or events for the month of December. Small-scale teams (under 5 people) are still welcome to share the space with our active atelier! A moody, maximalist dreamspace for creatives of all kinds. This one-of-a-kind studio in Toronto is part working jewellery atelier, part curated lounge — and 100% atmospheric. Designed with intention and overflowing with character, the space is a visual feast: dark walls, layered textures, vintage and antique furniture, curiosities and crystals, original artwork, handmade objects, and moody lighting that shifts with the hour. Perfect for photoshoots, film and TV productions, creative workshops, book clubs, Dungeons & Dragons campaigns, small group gatherings or content creation that needs something different. This isn’t a white-box rental — it’s an immersive environment full of visual storylines and rich details at every turn. There aren’t many spaces in the city quite like this. It’s deeply personal, undeniably witchy, and designed to evoke a world just slightly outside of time. Whether you’re shooting an editorial, filming a scene, or gathering for an intimate event, this space offers a unique, cinematic backdrop that requires little to no styling to feel complete. The studio features: — A moody lounge area with leather and and wooden seating, large vintage table, lots of vintage furniture, and warm lighting — A jewellery workstation with tools and materials on display (great for documentary/behind-the-scenes style shoots) — Floor-to-ceiling character: candles, dried florals, books, original art, mirrors, and objects with history — Ideal for portrait sessions, music videos, lookbooks, interviews, and styled shoots — Access to a shared washroom The space is best suited for small to medium-sized productions, and can comfortably accommodate groups of up to 10 people seated, and 20-30 people standing. Some furniture and decor can be moved upon request to suit your setup. You are welcome to bring your own lighting and rigs if you are looking for something specific. Whether you’re creating something moody, magical, modern gothic, or just different, this studio offers the kind of rich, layered environment that invites the camera in and holds attention.
