Originally founded in Brooklyn NY, we are now located in London, England. Our heroes range from Douglas Engelbart to Josef Müller-Brockmann to David Bowie and beyond. We have an aesthetic of flatness and are a bit suspicious of glossiness. We don't do fake cut-and-paste. (That's not real punk.) We don't do visual complexity for its own sake. (We prefer simple.) We primarily make deadpan, playful things and exhibition pieces.
Stewdio thrives on collaboration, expanding and contracting as necessary. We've greatly enjoyed working with Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Warning Office, ZKM Center for Art and Media, and many more. Our work has appeared in various exhibitions and festivals in New York, London, Paris, Brussels, Munich, and so on. To obtain more information or apply for an internship contact Stewdio by email (just replace the "A.T" with an @ symbol) or send correspondence to
