Czarnowski Portland | Infusion Studios


Czarnowski acquired Infusion Studios (a 3D visualization and animation studio in Gorham Maine) and moved them to their dream location closer to the east coast in Portland, Maine. This project was a complete interior renovation on the second story of the historic Rackleff Building in downtown Portland. As the principal interior designer on this project, I created a work environment for Infusion Studios which occupys roughly 3,500 square feet. This group of 3D artists needed a space conducive to 24/7 computer rendering, animation, and editing. The concept for this office was based on the evolution of visualization; celebrating it as photography stills and the pixels of photo-realistic renderings.
