We are Band.
We are a studio based in Southeast Portland.
Together, we are thinkers, creators, artists, graphic designers, illustrators, printmakers, woodworkers, welders and more, and we like to collaborate with good people on meaningful, worthwhile projects.
We came together out of a love for the same four chords of fast music. Like the tones of those trusty chords, we strive to make a resonant sound in our world that is honest, pure and all our own.
Currently, our studio is located at the 425 Building in Southeast Portland. Next door, we are members of ADX, Portland’s premier community of thinkers and makers.
ADX is an incubator of innovation, a place where individuals of all backgrounds can congregate to make and create, concept and collaborate. It was ADX and its dynamic community of diverse skill-sets that brought us all together, and it is a place we are proud to call home.
For more about ADX, check out their website (which we, not to brag too much, designed) here.
We started Band with a desire to keep everything DIY. But more and more, we realize that we prefer to keep everything DIT: Do It Together.
By collaborating with different people on different aspects of every project, we have a full-fledged team of creative professionals we are more than pleased to call our friends.
Friendships are the basis of everything we do, and we put more emphasis on sharing high fives and big laughs and the value of good people over that of competition and exclusivity.
