step inside the minimalist interior of hamburg-based kju.studio, captured by david altrath

david altrath photographs Kju.Studio in Hamburg

Over the past years, David Altrath has taken us on a global journey with his lenses – from a brutalist church to a historic town hall, a bamboo villa in Ibiza, and an airport in Portugal. Now, for his latest project, the photographer takes us inside a creative studio nestled in Hamburg-Bahrenfeld, Germany.

Altrath skillfully captures the essence of kju.studio, a photography and film atelier fashioned as a convertible loft, with generous daylight. Its minimalistic interior exudes serenity, adorned with vibrant furniture and splashes of color that offer a glimpse into the studio’s dynamic creative energy.

The photography series by David Altrath (find more here) offers an insightful look into the design and space of kju.studio (find more here). Nestled at the site of a former brick barracks in Hamburg, this studio stands out with its convertible daylight loft setup, featuring high ceilings and expansive openings.

Boasting modern studio facilities and an assortment of designer props and furniture, kju.studio places a strong emphasis on aesthetics. The studio cleverly integrates glass partitions and curtains to ensure privacy whenever required, while the open-plan layout and shared spaces foster communication and creative collaboration. The monochromatic background serves as an ideal backdrop for productions, allowing subjects to take center stage, while vibrant decorations and furniture pieces infuse the space with warmth and vibrancy.
