we orchestrate the impossible

Imagined.    Engineered.    Executed.

25+ Years of experience.
United under a new brand.

01 / Who we are

Complex creative environments need one point of control.

Studio Axion is a project management and production studio for complex creative environments.

We translate creative vision into buildable, operational results — from production design and film sets to showsets and permanent environments.

By combining central project control with in-house production, we align design, technical planning, budgets, schedules, specialist partners and on-site delivery. We take responsibility wherever creative ambition meets real-world complexity.

We don’t simply develop ideas. We make them buildable, manage their execution and ensure they are delivered as intended.

Themed areas and showsets — built to operate.

We turn vision into operational environments. Built for real-world conditions. Engineered for continuous use.

Featured case / 01

Disney Adventure
San Fransokyo

Showset · Themed Environment · Project & Design Management

ClientDisney Imagineering / Meyer Shipyard

RoleProject & Design Management — Fritjof Giese, on behalf of Meyer Shipyard

LocationWismar, Germany

A high-density themed environment combining narrative architecture, guest circulation and interactive experience within one operational showset.

Project and design management aligned creative intent with shipyard processes, technical interfaces and the demands of permanent public operation.

Integrated showset systems

Craft, media and lighting — resolved as one operational environment.

Within San Fransokyo, scenic architecture, screens, media surfaces, architectural lighting and technical access were coordinated as part of the showset itself — not added after fabrication.

  • Scenic architecture
  • Screens & media
  • Architectural lighting
  • AV & control infrastructure

02

Creative Production

Creative and technical teams translate ideas into buildable solutions, aligning design intent, materials and production methods from the beginning.

03

In-House Production

Our workshops manufacture, assemble and install the physical result — supported by a trusted international specialist network.

04 / Fabrication & technical competencies

Where creative development becomes physical reality.

Specialist craft, digital fabrication and technical execution within one integrated production structure.

Metalwork & structural fabrication

Scenic art & surface finishing

Carpentry & scenic construction

Spray finishing & surface treatment

Integrated workshop asset

Digital Integration & Technical Fit-Out

Physical fabrication and digital infrastructure are developed together: screen housings, media surfaces, lighting positions, cabling, ventilation and service access become part of the scenic system from the first workshop drawings.

  • Screen & media integration
  • Architectural lighting
  • AV & control infrastructure
  • Serviceable technical access

Concept design, 3D modelling, technical drawings and production planning.

Scenic sculptures, hero props, models, replicas and large-scale themed objects.

Silicone moulds, GRP, Jesmonite, resin and foam systems for unique pieces and series production.

Carpentry, themed interiors, showset structures, steelwork and aluminium fabrication.

Scenic painting, textures, ageing, patinas, faux finishes and high-quality spray coating.

CNC milling, laser cutting, 3D scanning, 3D printing and rapid prototyping.

Screen housings, media surfaces, architectural lighting, AV infrastructure, cabling, ventilation and service access coordinated with the scenic build.

Central coordination of budgets, schedules, workflows, partners and fabrication.

Worldwide transport, installation sequencing, on-site supervision and final integration.

Execution at scale

Built in workshops.
Delivered in the real world.

From fabrication and installation to performance-ready environments and monumental scenic objects.
