Studio Kunukku

Studio Kunukku is a Beirut-based multidisciplinary design studio run by an artist-designer duo from Syria and Lebanon, deeply rooted in the rich traditions of Levantine textile craftsmanship.

Through collaborations with cultural initiatives, the studio promotes Arab cultural heritage, using craft as a storytelling medium to highlight the narratives of local communities.

Honoring the value of craftsmanship and community, Studio Kunukku embraces slow production methods and age-old techniques. By reinterpreting and modernizing historic motifs on linen and silk, they ensure that a fading tradition is not only remembered but reimagined for contemporary use.

Studio Kunukku has evolved into a dynamic creative space, producing exquisite home textiles, clothing, and accessories. By fostering a network of in-house artisans and cross-border craft practitioners, they transform heritage into a living, breathing practice. Staying true to its ethical values, the studio sources the finest dead stock Belgian fabrics, reinforcing their commitment to sustainability and mindful production.

The studio is dedicated to reviving and preserving artisanal textile practices, beginning with woodblock printing and natural dye methods - traditional textile arts at risk in the region.
