ABOUT JULIAN

"I came to tattooing through industrial design — I wanted to bring that understanding of style and form to something more personal."

I studied industrial design, and for a long time that's how I thought about making things — form, proportion, intent. Tattooing became the place where all of that could turn into something personal: a client's idea, made lasting.

I started in my garage, tattooing close friends who trusted me at the very beginning. That trust is still the foundation of how I work. It's why I take my time, why I listen first, and why every piece is built with the person wearing it — not just for them.

My process is collaborative from the first message. You bring a reference or a direction; I consult with you before the appointment, and again before we start. Then I refine the design on my tablet with you, until you're completely comfortable with it. During the session you're kept involved — and afterward, I make sure you leave with clear aftercare guidance.

I put full effort into every piece, and I stay connected with the people I've tattooed. The relationships are the best part of this work.
