Makers and creative businesses are an essential part of the Stackwood community, no more so than our studios. Each of our spaces is filled with artists and makers that we love, creating with their hands, hearts, minds and communities on the daily.
Studios are generally open by appointment only, so please make sure you call ahead.
Common Good Studio is a co-working space for creatives by award-winning photographer Nirrimi Firebrace. It’s been a dream come true for Nirrimi to create a cosy space to create from, and make room for other artists to chase their dreams too.
Nirrimi is the creator behind The Daily Map, a six week roadmap to reaching your dreams. She's available for portrait or business shoots and loves giving workshops around creativity. Nirrimi often hosts open studio days for creative work alongside her.
Open by appointment only.
Jotterbook Flowers celebrates the wonder of nature's beauty with artisan paper flowers - thoughtfully handcrafted to last a lifetime. Carrissa Wu uses crepe paper and recycled materials to form each petal and leaf, with the aim of creating everlasting artworks you can gift, wear and display. She draws inspiration from the complexities of Australian native flora as well as unique plants found around the world.
Carissa uses the art of paper flowers as a vessel to cultivate community and engage with culture, through creating joyful objects and running small-scale workshops that celebrate the stories found in nature close to home.
Neighbourhood Press is run by print enthusiasts Scott Alexander and Nora Mironov. Specialising in Risograph, Scott and Nora use this niche form of printing to collaborate and experiment with small businesses and local creatives on print based projects.
In this digital age people think of printing as a way of replicating precisely what they see on their computer screen; Riso printing is more reminiscent of a time before digital printers. Scott & Nora want to encourage people to think more creatively about printmaking as a process and foster an excitement for
exploring alternative print.
slowflowers is a Waylyup / Fremantle based florist working out of the Stackwood studios. Kiara is inspired by and values a sustainable approach and dreams of an industry with less wastage that doesn’t compromise the environment or our creative style! Using a combination of native flowers and a pastel colour palette, slowflowers has got your back for any weddings, events or bunches.
Outside of florals kiara is finishing up her nursing degree at university and loves to soak in the sun rays every morning with a cappuccino in hand. She loves a good chat with friends over some wheel work ceramics and attempts to surf sometimes (approximately 3 times a year) On a Sunday you’ll catch kiara at the farmers market with her bestie or patting some cows at the families farm down in Manjimup.
All vacancies for studios are currently filled, but you can register your interest by email for any future vacancies. Please note approximate rates for studios cannot be given out ahead of time as all our spaces are unique and have their own features & benefits.
