Create Your Own, Commission A Design
Personalization and customization is at the very heart of everything we do
Are you looking for the ultimate customized experience or gift, you can commission a unique theme that speaks to your life:
- A cherished photo of a spouse, partner, or child.
- An image that is the personification of your spirit.
- An element from your home, or china pattern, that you wish to repeat at your table.
- Corporations customize their place cards with imagery or campaigns to synchronize with special product launches, dinners and events.
Case Study: Private Residence, Upstate NY
Interior Designer Sarah Oliver commissioned us to create a special set of coordinating place cards, menu cards, invitations and note cards for her home. Taking cues from the lyrical custom painted mural in her stairwell, which she designed herself and had painted by muralist Mark Chamberlain, Mr. P's suite of products helped bring a cohesive experience to the life she lives with her family in their bucolic 1800s farmhouse in the Hudson Valley.
The Oliver's dining table showing custom commissioned place cards and menu cards inspired by the mural in Sarah Oliver's stairwell.
A wonderful way to brand the entire experience for your guest and welcome them to your home and table.
How it works:
Co-founder Martin Cooper took images of the hand painted mural in Oliver's stairwell that he then edited, optimized and laid out into place cards, menu cards, invitations and note cards for its owner. You can also send us images to work from.
Each image is cleaned up & optimized in Photoshop for color balance, brightness, contrast, vibrancy, etc. to make the best print possible.
We often create custom masks (pink area) to precisely optimize the image in its best possible way.
The images are then loaded into InDesign to create the layout and each motif 'arted' in for the best looking and most interesting cropping.
What we can do:
Here at Mr. P’s studio, we relish in the unique process of personalizing our work for our clients. Creating something truly unique and memorable is our goal, lasting for years or perhaps only hours.
Your place cards, menu cards, table signs, invitations and note cards can be printed with a bespoke image of your own, or something we curate just for you.
Next Steps:
Reach out below. Include any theme you have in mind and whether you have a deadline. There is a non-refundable set-up fee for the artwork per product, plus the standard cost of the cards. Additional fees may apply for each different product designed with the same image. Projects requiring multiple proofs and modifications will incur additional costs accordingly. Your files are stored on our server for future orders.
