About us
WE ARE THE SKATEROOM. A B Corp certified social enterprise that partners with emerging and world-renowned artists on bespoke skateboard art collections, to sponsor social skate and education projects in at-risk communities around the globe. WE WERE FOUNDED IN 2014. By Charles-Antoine Bodson, a former gallerist who, after seeing the immense work of the infant Skateistan project in Afghanistan, decided to sell a portion of his collection to fund their second skate school in Cambodia. THE SKATEROOM was born. IT’S BEEN QUITE A JOURNEY. In the past eight years, we’ve raised over 1,5-million dollars for social skate projects around the world. That’s 35 projects, across 50 artistic collaborations. Over 200 editions. And every customer who has ever bought one has actively improved the lives of young people all over the planet through skate & education programs. WE’VE SEEN THE WORLD. And we’ve seen the world change. More businesses are waking up to the truth. We need a better way to do business. A brighter future for consumerism is possible, when we work together to create ethical, sustainable and engaged practices. WHAT’S NEXT? We are growing. Inviting the media, entertainment, hospitality, design and product industries to join us in our mission to change how we do business. Being socially engaged doesn’t just help NGOs, it also improves your life immensely. THANK YOU. LET’S TALK.

Joan Cornellà x THE SKATEROOM, available now. Warning – the art of Joan Cornellà may cause either joy or outrage. Ideally, it will make you feel a bit of both. The seemingly playful illustrations are filled with morbid humor as the artist dissects taboos and explores the darkest sides of human nature. Nothing is off limits for our latest collaborator. Just take a look at the thought-provoking design of his solo skate art edition titled ‘Save The Planet’. All satire aside, the collection really does have a positive impact on our world. We will be donating 10% of all sales towards social skate projects worldwide, supporting recreational initiatives and workshops, building skateparks and fostering youth communities. theskateroom.com

For our newest collaborator Jon Burgerman, the creative process is just as fascinating as the artwork it leads to. Stories of his own artistic exploration give us a glimpse into the emotionality, curiosity and vulnerability that lie beneath the imaginative characters he produces. In the lead up to our collection launch, we talked to the artist about creativity, artistic evolution and, above all, the Process.

The art of Jon Burgerman is not reserved only for galleries. You’ll find it on the streets of your city, on store shelves, in your favorite bookshop or - you guessed it - as a skate art edition. In this brand new collaboration, we bring you BURGERMAN’s distinctive vision in the form of a solo edition, a triptych and three original artworks which were spray-painted and hand-signed by the artist himself. As with all our collections, 10% of all sales will go towards social skate projects. -> www.theskateroom.com 🌭🌭🌭

Meet Jens-Peter Brask, a restaurant and nightlife entrepreneur turned prolific art collector, curator and book publisher. From his base in Copenhagen, he amassed an impressive selection of rare and eclectic works, including over 350 skate art editions (with a few highlights from THE SKATEROOM). We took a closer looks at Brask’s collection and chatted with him about his skater background, his approach to collecting, and the 60+ murals which he commissioned around the city, in an effort to give back.
