Where We Work
Although the scope of our artistic services takes throughout the United States, the renovated and historic 1883 Starline Factory Building located in Harvard, Illinois is our creative home. It is in this setting that we develop, create and craft the various elements related to our portfolio of creative services. In addition to our factory loft resource library and showroom, the Starline Building also houses our in-house frame shop and other artisan laboratories that support our projects.
