The black studio

Our entirely black 30 m² (22 x 15 ft) room, with a 12-foot ceiling, is ideal for all your video projects or photo shoots requiring lighting effects and projections. It is available with LED video lights or flashes and offers the possibility of adding different colored backgrounds. Perfect for product photos, portraits with controlled lighting, or any other creative project.

The New York living room

Immerse yourself in the chic and urban atmosphere of our New York living room, a unique photo shooting space. This studio is decorated with a distinctive New York style: bright white walls adorned with elegant moldings, pastel-colored armchairs, lush plants, artistic frames, and stylish rugs. The room is lit by beautiful natural light that is easily controlled with curtains.

The vintage lounge

Perfect for original photo shoots, our vintage lounge is carefully decorated to recreate the atmosphere of yesteryear.
