Vitruvius — A Tattoo Studio in the Heart of Kos Town
We are an independent tattoo and piercing studio a short walk from Kos port. Our work is fully custom, drawn in classical proportion, and tattooed slowly in a sterile, unhurried space. If you are visiting Kos for a few days, we plan everything — consultation, design, session and aftercare — around your travel dates.

- Fine LineFine Line Tattoos in KosFine line is the signature of our Kos studio: whisper-thin single-needle work, designed in classical proportion and tattooed slowly in a sterile, calm space. Fine line rewards precision over volume, and we treat every millimetre accordingly.
- BlackworkBlackwork Tattoos in KosBlackwork is about density, contrast and commitment. In our Kos studio we design blackwork pieces to command attention without losing elegance — geometric bands, ornamental panels, and sleeves mapped carefully to your body flow.
- RealismRealism Tattoos in KosRealism takes time and patience. Our Kos studio specialises in black-and-grey realism — portraits, classical sculpture and natural subjects rendered over carefully planned sessions, always in a sterile and unhurried environment.
- OrnamentalOrnamental Tattoos in KosOrnamental tattooing sits at the crossroads of architecture and jewellery. In Kos we compose ornamental pieces around your anatomy so the pattern flows with the body instead of fighting it — mandalas, cuffs, panels and sacred geometry.
- MinimalMinimal Tattoos in KosMinimal tattoos are deceptively hard. A single wrong line shows. That is exactly why we love them in Kos — and why our fine-line training translates so well to small, clean, meaningful pieces that age beautifully.
- Cover-upsCover-Up Tattoos in KosA good cover-up is rarely a bigger version of the same idea. We work with you in Kos to design a new piece that honours the skin underneath while making the old work disappear — usually in blackwork, ornamental or botanical directions.
Hygiene you can see
