The Gift Tradition

The Atelier has a gift tradition where guests and visitors are asked to gift an item to the Atelier, in exchange an item from The Atelier is gifted to them.

"The Atelier is a hub, a place for encounters: exchange and experience. Therefore, revelation. To pass through is to arrive and to leave. To leave is to go, but also to let go. Everyone that passes through The Atelier leaves part of themselves and takes part of The Atelier with them." - Ozzz
