The studio features 12-foot walls, 23-foot ceilings, and iconic sawtooth windows. These windows fill the space with soft, golden light. Thanks to its Western exposure, your shoots will enjoy the perfect afternoon glow. This natural light enhances textures, colors, and natural tones. Whether you’re photographing fashion, staging a product launch, or creating lifestyle content, this minimalist, light-filled studio adapts easily to your project.

Need more room to create? In addition, you can open the butterfly walls to connect with Studio 4 and the Ciel 1 Atrium. This instantly expands your set and offers flexible layouts for larger productions. You can also reimagine the space for different creative setups, making it ideal for multi-part shoots or dynamic filming scenarios.

Studio 3 comes equipped with enterprise Wi-Fi, a 100-amp 3-phase distro, and ample power outlets. As a result, you can run lights, cameras, and other creative equipment seamlessly. A dedicated lounge area and easy access to shared Ciel amenities make it simple to plan shoots, meetings, or collaborations in one convenient location.
