in the heart of füssen

Make Space is a bilingual creative studio where art, mindfulness, and community meet.

Through workshops, meet-ups, immersive weekends, and creative retreats, you’ll find space to make, connect, and be inspired.

Nestled in Füssen’s old town, surrounded by lakes and Alpine peaks, our studio is a place where ideas, materials, and people come together.

Whether you’re a local or a curious traveller, are stepping into creative practice for the first time or returning to something you love, this is the place to slow down, explore ideas, and make something unique.

Stop by, connect, make space.

About the Founder

Hello, I’m Leanne, an English-Australian artist, maker, designer, and educator. I work across slow fashion sewing, pattern design, ceramics, painting and textiles. I’m drawn to the tactile joy of working with my hands, shaping materials into pieces that are useful, deeply personal, and infused with story and meaning.

I founded Make Space as a studio where people can step out of the rush and into their inquisitive, creative selves. A place for pressure-free learning, immersive flow, and hands-on making that values process as much as outcome.

Creativity isn’t an exclusive talent, it’s a natural human impulse, a way to communicate, to express emotion and process experience. Life moves fast, and many of us quietly long for a pause: a moment to reflect, be heard, or simply be. Creative practice makes space for calm, focus, and intention.

After years of moving between countries, roles, and creative disciplines, one thread has tied everything together: making always helps me feel present, grounded, and whole.

With Make Space, I’m building a hub for my local community: a welcoming, multicultural studio rooted in thoughtful making, shared discovery, and genuine human connection.

A place where our creativity has space to grow.
