Open Studio™ on K Rd & West St

A unique opportunity to have a sneak peek inside some of New Zealand’s best studios and see what goes on behind closed doors.

Open Studio™ is a boutique event where studios on K'Rd & West St open their doors to the design community. Inviting them in to take a nosey and maybe an insight or two into their studio.

Material Creative, Design Dairy and CTRL_Space studios are tucked into K Road and West Street. They will open their doors, inviting the design community to come and relax, sip a drink and share some stories. 

An infamous & eclectic city fringe strip, K'Rd is now home to a variety of designers. Come along with us as we experience the sounds and sights of K'Rd & West St (access via Galatos St — West Terrace) while visiting our design studio partners to get a real insight into their inner-workings.
