Design + Production Studio
The Cada Casa design and production studio allows students to get real-world experience in various design elements while fundraising for their own classes and projects. As this is not a set class and is based upon the desired projects in the community, students can contact us at any point if they are interested in participating. When a community member reaches out to us, we will pair them with a supervisor/student team. Based on the experience of the student and the complexity of the project, the supervisor will oversee the different elements of the project including the development of a proposal, timeline, budget, quality control, delivery, and communication with the client. All proceeds of the project directly fund materials and supplies for the students to do their own projects.

Screen Printing + Printing Services
The design and production studio was originally created as school groups approached us to create club and sports t-shirts and hoodies. Groups have included Penner-Ash Wine Cellars, Prestige Catering, Querétaro FC PDX, Portland Metro Painting, Beaverton Snowboarding Alliance, Beaverton High Dragon Boats Team, BHS Black Student Union, BHS MEChA, AVID classes, Tasteful Catering, Oregon Boys High School LAX Championships, and many more.
If you are completely new to screen printing, we recommend that you take either our private or semi-private screen printing class, or our Free-Form Fashion Design after-school class. We understand that at times you may want to do it yourself. Below you will find a list of the services and prices that we offer.
