Company founder Phil Dickinson drew upon 25 years experience in commercial photography, graphic design, and trade show marketing when he started Ocean Color in 1995. Within about 7 years, Ocean Color had thousands of customers representing every state in the union as well as many foreign countries from every continent except Antartica.
Ocean Color has worked with customers in almost every sector of the economy, from lumber yards to financial institutions, from health care to high tech, from government to museums. So there is a good chance that when you call, we will understand what you need. In the late 1990's Ocean Color was one of the first companies to offer banner stands.

For nearly 20 years starting in 1996, Ocean Color occupied a large commercial space on a main drag. A couple of years ago, as I have now grown older, I moved the company to a studio attached to my home. It is very conveniently located in a mixed commercial/residential neighborhood, and the studio is an ideal workspace for my creative work and small scale production.
Think about the Model T Ford, and how it changed the role of the automobile in American life. Before Henry Ford figured out how to mass produce an automobile and make it affordable for the average family, motor cars were an expensive luxury available only to the upper income sector. What does this have to do with large format graphics and display products?
Most people who have exhibited at a lot of trade shows will have had the experience of getting to the show and discovering that their display didn't make it. It happened to me a number of years ago. I was exhibiting at a show in Houston. The office made a mistake in shipping, and I stood in front of the pipe and drape for two days with nothing but the business cards I had packed in my suitcase.
This type of display is fast becoming the new standard for a number of good reasons. A single very large image printed on stretch fabric presses into the channel of an aluminum frame. Very, very little of the frame is visible, so what you have is a large, very flat image at the back of your booth. The frame does support stem lights for illumination.
It turns out that this type of display is absolutely the most economical way to place a 10-ft-wide photo mural at the back of your trade show booth or wherever you would like to have a commanding presence. It consists of the kind of frame that is made of multiple "X's" that, when pulled apart, instantly expand into a large structure.
