Studio

We make small things monumental.

Ctrl+P is a New York studio built on one idea: take something everyone knows, a rubber duck, a paperclip, a push pin, and print it big enough to walk around. Then we finish it by hand and install it for brands, artists and the spaces they share.

Print

Room-scale

Large pieces printed in sections, keyed and bonded to read as one object.

Finish

In-house

Filling, sanding, priming, painting and protective coats, all done here.

Install

On site

Delivered and installed for launches, galleries, lobbies and pop-ups in New York.

Small idea. Huge presence.

Studio / Design / Fabrication

How we work

Four rules we make everything by.

01

Engineered for the room

We start with where it will stand: the doorway, the floor, the sightlines and the people around it. Then we size and section the piece to suit.

02

Finish is half the work

A print is only the start. Seams are filled, surfaces sanded and primed, then painted or coated until it reads as one object.

03

Honest about scale and time

We tell you early what is realistic for your size, finish and date, and what would change it.

04

Built to travel and install

Sections are planned to fit through doors and lifts, with joins that go together quickly and cleanly on site.
