About Us
If necessity is the mother of creation, then the pandemic gave birth to TigerBunny Studio, a creative haven and lovechild of longtime San Francisco artists Daisy San Luis and Justin Smith.
Located in Russian Hill, tucked away from the more traversed areas of San Francisco, TigerBunny Studio began as a necessary step to evolve their individual crafts after the partners’ 15 years of bartending came to an abrupt halt in 2020. The studio quickly became a welcoming neighborhood destination to highlight genre-bending artists (local and worldwide), discover curated vintage and procure bespoke jewelry. Plants and crystal offerings filled the overwhelming demand for people wanting to remain connected to nature throughout lockdown.
As jewelry designer and metalsmith, well-known for her signature SF Muni Token ring and customizable “littlest” collection, Daisy San Luis has an eye for unique momentos that take pieces from mere decoration to keepsakes and heirlooms. As an artist, musician and filmmaker whose works simultaneously honor both the roots and the progressiveness of Hip-Hop and Street Culture, Justin continues to be a tireless advocate for the preservation of the San Francisco (and Bay Area at large) arts and music community, which has experienced a notable diminished presence as a result of the perfect storm of tech-boom, rent-crisis and the pandemic. Committed to the artistic essence of what San Francisco once represented and the potential of the next iteration of expression, Daisy and Justin stand uniquely poised to usher in a new injection of creative life-force into the scene.
A safe space for all, TigerBunny Studio is the one-stop shop for gifts big and small, true inspiration and community cultivation.
