Need a workspace revamp? Say hello to our friend Texture.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think of an office? We wager that for a lot of people it’s not exactly a picturesque image. A slew of cubicles. Dim lighting. Beige and grey as far as the eye can see. The sole pieces of décor are a clock that ticks a […]

BIGGER BETTER ER2: A Party/Showcase Mashup

It was certainly exciting when we moved into our new facility in Hanover Park, but it was even more exciting when it was time to welcome 200 guests inside for the coolest open house they’ve ever been to. Okay, that might be a slight exaggeration, but a lot of work went into making this event a […]

Bare Walls in Our New Space? We Don’t Think So!

It didn’t take us long to settle into our new home in Hanover Park, and honestly, it’s everything we hoped for. The new layout is much more efficient, which is a good thing, because we’ve never been busier. However, one matter desperately needed to be addressed before the move – all those plain, white, empty […]

Big Format Success Can Be Measured in Small Ways

It’s typical for most companies to measure their success by just looking at their P & L statements at the end of the year. While we did set new records for volume and profitability last year (thank you, clients), we like to think our achievements of the past 12 months are based on more than […]

Custom Graphic Design: A Christkindlmarket Festival Chalet

If you know us at all, you know it takes a lot to throw us. We just always assume we’ll figure out a way to get any custom graphic design project done…and done well. But the fact is, we never really thought about making a custom tent until Glen Hansen of Marquee Tents and Event […]
