Studio Shtot is a design collective based in Canada focused on the art, design, culture, and style of cities. We publish Shtot Magazine, our quarterly publication in September, January, March, and June, along with our other projects.
What is a Shtot? In Yiddish Eastern-European Jewish culture, a Shtot (or city) was a place central to political, artistic, and economic life. Studio Shtot takes inspiration from the concept of the “Shtot” as an example of the power of cities. They are shaped by the people that interact with them, and shape the same people in turn. Our goal is to explore culture and society through the lens of cities.
