A Korean–German tattoo studio in Berlin-Mitte

The space

GON sits on Gipsstraße in Berlin Mitte, a short walk from Rosenthaler Platz. The room is deliberately plain: poured concrete, bare brick, a long oak desk milled into soft waves. Light comes in from the courtyard and does most of the decorating. It was built to feel less like a shop than a place you'd want to linger in.

The people

The artists here come through a Korean–German alliance of studios — Berlin, Stuttgart, Munich and Seoul. Most keep to fine line, dotwork and quiet botanical work, and most are booked weeks ahead. Before anything is drawn on skin you'll sit with your artist, talk through placement, and settle on what the piece should hold.
