Out of the Pines
Inside HQ
This organization started as Smallwoods, their specialty being custom prints and frames. You know those special moments that live on all of our phones, but never make it to the wall?
From uploading your personal photo to their site, picking your frame, size, the whole 9 yards down to it being delivered to your door, THIS is their specialty - a pic on your phone to a piece of art in your home.
They call this operation the Print Shop, and it's where it all started really. They used to work off of card tables, painting signs in a garage. You could count their staff on one hand then. Now, they've grown into the hundreds. Before moving into HQ, they spent a good chunk of their past printing in one building, framing in another, and then carrying it over to another building to ship. Sounds like a lot.
Needless to say, a lot has improved since the card table days. With state-of-the-art printers and a new conveyor belt system right to the bay door for delivery, convenience and efficiency finally meet hand in hand for this group of East Texas go-getters as they step into the door of their new HQ.

Open House Coming Soon
There's a massive new building tucked in the pines, off a major highway in East Texas. But what's it doing here? Who works here? Who parks here? A series of questions often asked by any passerby. Welcome to The Pines. A place that houses a family of brands.

Open House Coming Soon
There's a massive new building tucked in the pines, off a major highway in East Texas. But what's it doing here? Who works here? Who parks here? A series of questions often asked by any passerby. Welcome to The Pines. A place that houses a family of brands.
Not a corporate box
People first. Function follows suit.
AWhen it came to the design of this building, several factors were considered. First off, it's nestled in 240 acres of East Texas land, rural land to boot, surrounded by tall Pine trees.
AThe goal being to disrupt mother nature as minimally as possible and to preserve as much of its scenery. Focused through the lens of inward expansion, this building was carefully designed and crafted with the long game in mind and for the development of the land it's built upon.
Design Studio
Up the stairs and into the Design Studio.
So you know about the Print Shop, but what about the family of brands that also works out of this building? Well, up the stairs of HQ there is a hidden mezzanine. It's called the Design Studio and it's gradually forming into the cornerstone of The Pines.
This is the creative space where the family of brands collectively will carry out their many projects through the people that will bring them to full fruition. Which brings us to another group of go-getters, the Design Team.
