Located in the Greenpoint neighborhood,  108 Studios approaches piercing through the lens of design, anatomy, and long term wearability. The studio is known for refined placements, thoughtful pacing, and a quieter, more personal experience centered around collaboration and trust.

The work of J. Colby Smith and Adrian Castillo is shaped by a shared belief that piercing should feel considered rather than transactional. Every appointment is tailored to the individual, with careful attention given to anatomy, jewelry selection, balance, and how the work will evolve over time.

Rather than chasing excess or trend driven aesthetics, the studio focuses on work that feel integrated with the body and capable of becoming part of a client’s identity. Jewelry is selected with the same philosophy in mind: timeless, wearable, and intended for longevity.

Operating primarily by appointment, the Brooklyn studio was designed to feel calm, intimate, and to be discovered intentionally. Clients visit from throughout New York City and internationally for a more refined approach to piercing and fine jewelry.
