Our Story: From a Kitchen Table to a Community StudioAt Brooklyn Buildz, we believe the most satisfying thing you can do with your hands isn't swiping a screen—it’s building a masterpiece. In a world dominated by pixels and notifications, we provide a sanctuary for tactile craftsmanship and technical focus.My name is Kevin, and the spark for this journey began during the 2020 lockdowns. Like many families, my son and I were looking for a way to stay engaged and off our devices. We sat down with our first scale model kit, and the "magic" happened: the phones went away, the focus kicked in, and we discovered a shared passion for precision and assembly that lasted long after the world reopened.At the beginning of this year, after a sudden career transition following a job loss, I decided to take a leap of faith. I wanted to take the skills I had honed as a professional modeler and a dedicated maker and give back to my community. I saw a gap in our neighborhood—a need for a "Technical Third Space" where students and adults could step away from the digital fog and learn the art of the build.The Brooklyn RealityMost local apartments are too cramped for a dedicated hobby desk, and the "mess" of sanding and detailing doesn't always fit into a shared living space. We founded Brooklyn Buildz in the heart of Sunset Park to solve that problem.What We DoDuring this pilot phase, our mission is to build a community of makers. We focus specifically on the art of the Gundam—teaching students the fundamentals of "Gunpla" and precision assembly. Our workshops are designed to be an all-inclusive experience:The Kit: You choose a high-quality model kit to build and take home.The Pro-Tool Library: Use our professional-grade nippers and precision sanding files during your session.The Detailing Station: Bring your build to life using our selection of specialized hobby markers for panel lining and custom color detailing—no fumes, no mess, just professional results.Whether you are a parent looking for an engaging after-school program for a child (ages 10+) or a hobbyist looking for a quiet, professional space to work on your own projects, we provide the environment you need to succeed.There is a unique pride in seeing a complex 3D project come together under your own hands. Join us in the studio to clear your mind, sharpen your skills, and build something real.Welcome to the studio. Now, let's create some magic together.
