A creative space

Studio Cafe, Bar & Shop

Stúdíó Handbendi is more than just a rehearsal room. It is a multi purpose creative space for everyone who has ever had an idea they want to try, a hobby that needs a home, or a class they want to lead. It is a space that inspires, whether you are developing an artistic project through our residency programme, a gallery exhibition, hosting a meeting, doing some yoga, or rehearsing. We aim to facilitate your creative endeavours.

You will find a lovely little cafe & bar on site along with free wifi and a couple of hot desks if you are looking for a place to work for a few hours. We also have a small gift shop stocking high quality art supplies, books, and toys.

Stop Motion, Puppetry & Animation Studio

Stúdíó Handbendi produces and creates original animations, shorts, and audio books. We also provide puppetry services for film and television productions. Some of our recent work includes the award winning feature film Lamb/Dýrið by Valdimar Jóhannsson and puppets featured in season three of the international hit television show Trapped. 

Need some puppets or puppetry related experts for your project? Contact us for more information.​
