(Industrial Daylight Studio)

What makes our photo studio rental in Switzerland different
A former printing house. 250 m² of open industrial loft. Three oversized window fronts that soften the light the way softboxes never quite manage. High ceilings, warm wooden floors, raw concrete walls – a space with character before you’ve even set up your first shot.
This is a natural-light photography studio built by accident: the building was designed for printers who needed even, consistent daylight all day long. For photography, that’s rare. In the morning the eastern light comes in soft and golden. By midday it diffuses evenly across the entire floor.
The studio works for portraits, headshots, business photography, product shoots and smaller video productions. Need full lighting control? A Profoto strobe setup and light modifiers are available as an add-on.

“Spent a full day at the studio at the end of January with a team of 7, and I can’t praise it enough. Clean industrial look, plenty of lighting options and more than enough space for make-up artists and all the equipment we brought along. Even though it was winter, it stayed pleasantly warm, and the whole day felt relaxed.”
Bernd Linke – Photographer
“I booked the studio for a masterclass and loved it. All that space was perfect for the group, and the free parking right outside made the day easy for everyone.”
Stefan Beutler – Photographer
“The old walls are incredible. They go perfectly with my pictures.”
Jean Noir – Photographer
