Who we are to you

A complete pair of hands on the ground — as if we were a department inside your own company.

International wedding planners, event and communication agencies, luxury brands and production companies choose us as their logistical and creative base in Italy: the partner who turns demanding ideas into installations that actually stand up, on time and on spec.

You are not a remote client placing an order. You are a team that needs hands, eyes and accountability on the ground: someone to walk the venue, talk to the site manager, secure the permits, fabricate, ship and install — and answer to you for the whole chain.

A physical foothold in Italy,
an international reach.

Destination weddings on the Amalfi Coast, Capri, the lakes and the hill towns: scenic elements, lettering, furniture and bespoke décor, installed and struck by our crew.

Event and communication agencies

Executive production of installations and brand activations: from the render to the installed piece, with one supplier carrying the responsibility.

Luxury and retail brands

Window displays, pop‑up stores, oversized mockups and 3D signage for openings and launches, finished to showroom standard.

Production companies and broadcast

Television and film sets: scenic elements that are light, safe to move and ready inside a production schedule.

Trade fair and congress organisers

Stands, totems, signage and exhibition areas: design, fabrication, freight and installation inside the venue’s build‑up window.

Frequently asked questions

Working with us from abroad.

Can I hire you for a project without ever coming to Italy?
Yes — it is how we work with most of our overseas clients. We carry out the site survey, send you measurements and photographs, deal with the venue, fabricate, deliver and install. You approve remotely and your dedicated contact keeps you updated throughout.
Do you deliver and install outside Italy?
Yes. We handle crating, freight and customs formalities through to the destination country, where we work with our own installation crew or alongside the local team already engaged on the project.
Who deals with permits and with the venue?
We do. We speak directly to the venue, the municipality or the site operator to obtain the necessary authorisations, agree the build‑up windows and respect the constraints of the space.
How far in advance should I contact you for a destination wedding or an event?
The earlier you write, the more room there is for the survey, the permits and fabrication. For complex installations the right moment is as soon as the venue is confirmed; for smaller interventions we can often work to much tighter timescales. Send us the dates and we will tell you straight away whether it is feasible.
What do you need in order to quote my project?
A visual reference (a render, a moodboard, a sketch or a photograph), approximate dimensions, the venue and the dates. Vector or 3D files are even better: from those we work out feasibility, fabrication method and price.
Why expanded polystyrene (EPS) rather than wood or metal?
Because it delivers monumental volume at a fraction of the weight. It ships with fewer constraints, it can be moved safely through delicate or historic spaces, it installs quickly — and once resin‑coated and finished it reads as stone, wood, marble or metal.
