What teams say:

We had a fantastic day with Simon from cosmaki. The atmosphere was warm, the studio beautiful, and the workshop incredibly inspiring. It was exciting to see how plants create colors using different techniques and to get creative ourselves!
Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience sustainable craftsmanship!

Josephine Burzynski

A few weeks ago, we had a wonderful team workshop with Simon at the cosmaki studio, where we learned how to dye with natural dyes using different techniques.
We received a warm welcome and felt very comfortable the whole time.
The atmosphere was calm and relaxed, and the stations were varied with a mix of social and meditative activities.
The mix of creative interaction and information was perfect – Simon is a really great explainer. It was also nice that, despite being divided into small groups, you could still hop back and forth between the three different stations and look around. But above all, it was great to do something with your hands and then take it home with you...
We would do it again anytime – definitely recommend it! :-)
