Flying High: ER2 and Newcolor Revamp O’Hare International Terminal
Prior to the recent remodel of O’Hare Airport’s International Terminal 5, the term “no-frills travel” was being kind. “The international terminal was just terrible; you couldn’t even get a cup of coffee,” according to Chris Cassettari, director of sales (AKA one man band) at Newcolor, who worked in conjunction with ER2 Image Group over the […]

This remarkable project came by way of the Scottish Rite Valley […]
Forget the Game, We’re Just Here for the Party
