Studio XCIX
A quiet place for permanent work
Not a showroom. Not a rush. A small room with good light, steady hands, and time to get it right.
Studio philosophy
Studio XCIX is a fictional concept studio built like a gallery — calm, deliberate, and personal. The work is the loudest thing in the room.
We’re drawn to pieces with restraint — compositions that breathe, lines that hold, details you notice only when you’re close.
Tattoos don’t have to shout to be powerful. Sometimes the most honest work is the work you keep quiet.
“Permanent doesn’t mean heavy. It can mean precise.”
Studio note
The process
Every piece starts with a conversation — the subject, the mood, the placement, the references. We look for what matters, then simplify until it feels inevitable.
Designs are custom and prepared ahead of your appointment. The session itself is focused, quiet, and unhurried — built around attention and precision.
- • Appointment-only, by request
- • Custom design, prepared in advance
- • Deposit required once confirmed
- • A calm space, centered on the work
If you have an idea — even a vague one — start here. We’ll shape it with you.

Studio manifesto
A few things we return to, again and again.
Intention
We keep what matters and remove what doesn’t — until the piece feels clear.
Craft
Clean lines, balanced composition, and work that heals well and lasts.
Calm
A studio that feels like a gallery — quiet enough to focus, warm enough to stay.
Collaboration
We listen closely. The best work is made together, not pulled from a catalog.
