About Artep Studio

Artep Studio is a multidisciplinary art & design studio based in Cape Town, under creative direction of Petra Maierhofer.

The portfolio highlights an extensive collection of designs that prioritize a clean and elegant aesthetic, while also valuing the use of high-quality materials and traditional artisanal techniques. Custom pieces reflect a unique creative vision that seeks to strike a balance between contrasting elements such as classic and modern, industrial and organic, bold sculptural forms and simple lines.

The studios approach is grounded in practicality, drawing inspiration from architectural elements and a genuine curiosity about human behavior. This results in designs that seamlessly blend functionality with aesthetics.

“Great design and great relationships come from collaboration. We take pride in working closely with our clients to design something beautiful together.”
