about us
FL@33 is a multi-lingual and multi-specialised studio

FL@33s’ mission is to create a professional, vibrant, fresh and artistic body of work while keeping a balance between commissioned and self-initiated projects and publications.

FL@33 projects have been extensively featured online and were published in numerous magazines, newspapers and books around the world.

April 2005 saw the studio move across town to a much larger space in Central London, Clerkenwell. To mark this new era a FL@33 monograph was published in May 2005 as part of the highly collectable 'design & designer' book series by french Pyramyd Editions.
