Meets Berlin

Quiet and calm, by design

Our studio

GON is a tattoo studio in Berlin-Mitte, at Gipsstraße 15. The room is quiet, the light is good, the pace unhurried.
A tattoo is permanent, and we give the decision the time it deserves: the design drawn,
the stencil placed and checked, the first line made only when everything is right.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Through our request form — tell us your motif, the placement and a rough size so an artist can assess your project precisely. You are also welcome to visit us in person at Gipsstraße 15 in Berlin Mitte.

  • Every piece is individual, so price is part of the conversation that follows your request — shaped by size, placement and detail. Once we understand your project, we discuss it openly.

  • There is some discomfort, and how much depends on the placement, the size and your own sensitivity. Most people find it far more manageable than they expected. Rest well, eat beforehand and arrive calm — the session is usually gentler than the anticipation.

  • Sleep well, eat a proper meal and stay hydrated. Avoid alcohol for twenty-four hours beforehand, and wear comfortable clothing that gives easy access to the area being tattooed.

  • Your artist gives you full aftercare guidance at the end of your session. In short — keep it clean, moisturise lightly, stay out of the sun, and avoid pools and saunas while it heals. Let it settle without scratching. The surface usually heals within two to three weeks.
