Color, material, and finish design from a team trained at the highest levels of themed entertainment and film production.
Our decorative arts department brings a background you don't typically find in a commercial fabrication shop — color and material systems for Walt Disney Imagineering, scenic fabrication for Marvel Studios and Lucasfilm, art direction across productions for HBO, Warner Bros., and Apple TV+, and immersive environment design for installations like Tim Burton's Lost Vegas at the Neon Museum. We don't just paint surfaces. We develop cohesive visual languages — color systems, finish strategies, and material palettes that shape how a space feels and how people move through it.
We also bring formal graphic design and typography training to every project. When a project calls for original lettering, custom signage, or a brand identity translated into physical space, the design and the execution come from the same department. That means typographically informed hand lettering, not just decorative painting — and no gap between what was designed and what gets delivered.

Water gilding, oil gilding, and glass gilding in genuine gold, silver, palladium, and composition leaf. Applied to lobby signage, ceiling medallions, bar fronts, furniture, millwork accents, heritage restorations, and architectural glass. We size, lay, and burnish on-site or in-studio depending on the substrate and project logistics.
Hand-painted lettering, pinstriping, window gilding, and mural work for storefronts, restaurants, hotel interiors, wayfinding systems, and branded environments. Every letterform is drawn and painted by hand, informed by formal training in typeface design and graphic design. The result is signage with optical depth, typographic integrity, and surface variation that vinyl wraps and digital prints physically cannot achieve.
Lacquer, conversion varnish, stains, oil finishes, painted finishes, faux marble, aged plaster, patina treatments, woodgrain, trompe l'oeil, venetian plaster, and custom texture work. Every finish on every project passes through the decorative arts department — whether it's a hand-rubbed oil on a walnut bar top or aging new construction to match a specific period narrative. These techniques were refined on sets for Marvel, Lucasfilm, and Disney — where finishes have to read as real under camera scrutiny. They hold up even better in permanent installations.
Original lettering design, custom color studies, finish sample boards, mural concept development, and visual direction for branded environments. We work from your brand guidelines, your architect's material palette, or a napkin sketch — and develop presentation-ready concepts before production begins.
