Studio Kechaeva is a San Francisco and beyond-based design studio founded by artist and designer Masha Kechaeva. We take a multidisciplinary approach to every project, whether it's a brand photoshoot or a multi-day event. Drawing on a background in theatre, we create the full experience of a space - concept, set design, and spatial storytelling - for brand campaigns, events, and theatre productions. We believe in handcraft, and in the worlds it lets us build.

-
A starting point for your idea. A concept development, spatial planning, and creative guidance to shape a vision before it's built. Drawing on years of hands-on knowledge of materials and fabrication, we help you understand what's possible within your budget.
-
Full production support for photo and video campaigns — concept design, prop styling, fabrication, and on-set presence to ensure the concept translates from sketch to camera.
-
Every event deserves its own atmosphere, and we can't wait to build it. Whether it's a brand launch, a milestone celebration, or a one-off installation, we shape the environment around what the moment calls for.
-
We love sharing what we know - how to build a space, whether it's setting a table or building a set for a photoshoot. From small details to full productions, we teach the same thinking we bring to every project.
