About Sydney City Tattoo

Sydney City Tattoo is a custom studio in Chippendale, just south of the CBD, built around strong design and solid fundamentals rather than any single passing trend.

The shop leans into Japanese, American and Australian traditional, illustrative and blackwork tattooing, with a resident crew of artists each keeping their own book. Walk-ins sit alongside booked appointments, so the studio works for both a planned custom project and something decided on the day. The emphasis throughout is on clean, readable tattoos made to last.

For bold traditional linework or a larger custom piece in the inner city, it is a well-established, licensed option with a broad bench of artists.
