Ciel Creative Space

It’s hard to fully capture how amazing CIEL Studio truly is. We started as tenants, renting an upstairs office space, then later used their studios to host community events for our business — and along the way, we also attended many of the incredible art and community gatherings they organized. CIEL has become such an anchor for the Berkeley community, and their impact is deeply felt. Beyond the community connection, CIEL delivers a highly professional experience. Whether you’re looking for a space for events, photo shoots, filming, or podcast shows, everything is run smoothly, modernly, and thoughtfully. The spaces are always clean, organized, and filled with inspiring artwork. Plus, the staff is attentive, welcoming, and truly professional — they go above and beyond to make sure every need is taken care of. If you’re looking for a versatile, beautiful, and well-managed space in Berkeley, I can’t recommend CIEL Studio enough!

We hosted our wedding (both ceremony and reception) at Ciel, and it was phenomenal! Studio 5 was perfect for the plant-filled, industrial-chic vibe we envisioned. Chris worked tirelessly with us to bring out vision to life, as well as to stretch the tight budget we were working with. The space came equipped with a kitchen, and Ciel was even able to accommodate our outside caterer's request to grill onsite. While industrial, the neighborhood felt safe and came with lots of onsite parking. We hands-down would recommend Ciel Creative Space for any event.

Great meeting space, perfect for catering and any size event! Parking was super easy right on the street, great location as well. Should you be needing event space in the East Bay, you cannot go wrong!

We rented the larger conference room for a meeting for my company and it was great. Very cool conference room. Easy access to street, great TV for displaying laptop stuff and huge white board. Lots of space and Christina was very helpful. You will book through peerspace which worked well also.

Very clean and spacious with an amazing coffee machine in the kitchen. The ceilings are super high and the plants that hang down from them hard lush and add a great sense of greenery. Great spot. Kilt the design.

Wow!! Great space for any event.

Gorgeous. Classy. Full of light. High ceilings. PLANTS! I attended a one-day conference at Ciel and the venue truly elevated the experience to the next level.

We held a memorial for a special family member this last weekend ( 4/22/23). After the event had finished, we all said "the space was perfect!". The size, accommodation, area, and the look was just what we needed. I thank Maria and Chris both for their help and experience. Thank you Andrea and the Morse family♡
