Meet the owners


We’re a family owned and operated business designing, fabricating, and installing scenery, props, displays, trade show booths, signage, staging, and displays. We’re based in Toronto, Ontario, and work with clients all around the “Golden Horseshoe” from St. Catherines to Oshawa, Ontario. 

We’ve had the privilege of working with many high-profile companies and events over the years. Our clients tend to hear of us by word-of-mouth, and they keep coming back year after year. 

What keeps our clients coming back is our collaborative approach we take with our clients and partners. This can be a stressful business with tight deadlines and high expectations. Our talented and hard-working craftspeople, artists and project managers work closely with our clients to make their events and productions a success.
