Behind the scenes

Image credits

Creative Factory Labs is mid-redesign. Every image below is a stand-in, not a photo of our workshop, our work or a customer's job, and none of them will stay once real photography is ready.

Product and method photos across this site currently come from one of two places: a small piece of on-brand placeholder art we generated ourselves, or a stock photo from Pexels, used under the Pexels License (free for commercial use; attribution isn’t required, but we credit photographers below anyway). Nothing on this page is presented as a real customer, a real garment we’ve printed, or our own workshop.

Right now: 61 of 63 image slots use a real Pexels photo, and 2 still use generated placeholder art (no Pexels API key has been supplied yet). Full detail on how these files are produced and replaced lives in public/images/README.md in the project source.
