It hasn’t even felt like a full year since we’ve moved last. Wait — it hasn’t been a full year since we’ve moved last. Life happens when you’re busy. Growth doesn’t happen in comfort zones. Magic doesn’t happen in comfort zones.

You’ve got to have a little rough and tumble in your journey, gotta be ever-hungry for the next adventure. So when the news came that the company we were holing up with was growing and needed the space, we set to the streets — and found a sweet little spot right in the heart of Midtown Reno, Nevada

welcome to the new digs

Now, this is the most space we’ve ever had as a creative studio. We’re no longer existing in coffeeshops, at the Reno Collective, a tiny little studio in the alley of Roff Way, or even claiming our space in the US Bank Building — we’re finally home, we finally have a space to call our very own.

Loading up the boxes to our new home, we couldn’t help but get a bit sentimental, its hard not to when you’re loading boxes of not only every sketchbook, rulers, reference book and tchotchke that has come into our office over the last bit of time — but also getting a glance of all the great partners we’ve gotten to work with.

From our dear friends in Australia to our home base of Nevada, we’ve been fortunate enough to not only have partners that touch both coasts, but also multiple continents. Chasing dreams fueled by coffee from our pals at Magpie Coffee Roasters and Coffeebar, and celebrating the wins at our neighborhood bar around the corner, Piñon bottle.

Spanning pet treats to punk rock — the partners we’ve worked with are a diverse bunch of badasses. But the one thing that unites them all? A passion for life, excitement, and a job well done.

And for that, here’s to you guys — the partners who keep us rocking and rolling, day in and day out. The ones who give us a reason to pour a cup of coffee in the am, and a cold one in the pm.

So before we get all teary-eyed and sentimental — lets celebrate to being home. Here’s to junk drawers growing into junk cabinets, from a partnership of two growing into a family of 5, and to having a space where we can store it all, share a few brews, create good work for good people, and most importantly, to call home.

Find us at our new location: 119 Thoma St, Reno, NV, 89509
