Our Smith Street store has been featured in many fantastic publications in the last few years including Peppermint Magazine, Visit Victoria and Time Out.
Ask anyone where they can buy beautiful handmade gifts in Melbourne and they will tell you to visit that little pink shop on Smith Street!
Here at in.cube8r Fitzroy, our spaces are divided into glass cube display cabinets, clothing racks, shelves, slatwalls, and visual art spaces, which are all available for local makers to rent and fill with their handmade products.
At in.cube8r we believe you should be able to exhibit what you like without paying any commission on sales, so our spaces are commission free.
As each location has different staffed hours, foot traffic, demographics and number of spaces, they are priced by the day.
Smith Street has come a long way in recent years, going from that part of town that only the bravest would face to being recently named “the coolest street in the world” in a Time Out Survey.
While we’re not sure how that data was collated, we are sure that it’s a pretty fine shopping strip filled with some of the best shops in Melbourne, and we’re proud to have been hanging out here since 2007!
This store is a long galley style layout, with a swirling green floor and hot pink highlights. Perhaps the more grungy of our locations, we’re pretty proud of this trail blazer rocker of a store – she’s survived a pandemic after all!
One thing our artists love about selling with us is the way we bring our products together in interesting and unique ways that feature our makers front and centre.
As a cuber, you can expect for your products to be marketed
As a cuber you can expect to be kept in the know about what’s planned for the coming months so you can be prepared & add products that are complimentary to our marketing efforts!
And … a humble brag
In a recent survey our cubers 95% said they were happy, or exceptionally happy with in.cube8r’s marketing of both the store and their brand, which we’re pretty bloody proud of!
We don’t want to give away our entire marketing strategy here for obvious reasons, but have a look at our instagram for an idea of how we like to market our artists, and how you’ll in turn be marketed by us!
Our Fitzroy space has been operating so long, that we have tried and true regulars and limited available spaces to rent.
As with our other spaces, we’ve kept our costs as low as possible while also making sure to budget for advertising & marketing costs to help you sell more gorgeous things!
There are less than 20 of each space option available, so do get in quick if you would like a spot!
