Take a peek into our bustling hive of creativity
You may see our work elsewhere around town but we are unable to disclose the full scale of our work online. Come in for a discover tour and ask us about what else we can do for you!
Every project we do is given thought, time and creativity. These projects are no exception. Below you'll find our featured work: the heavyweights of out-of-the-box thinking, the behemoths of problem solving, and the stunning creations we love to be a part of. We never shut down the 'what if's?' and 'why not's?' These are the projects that involve every department and every mind. These are the ones we love and hate to say goodbye to. This is our featured work.
No day is the same at MAC Group. Our projects are ongoing and never ending. The sights and sounds around the departments are constantly changing. From the whir of the printers to the chirps and sparks from the lasers, to the bubbling water jet; we have a lot going on. Take a look below at some of our recent work in all of our departments: print, fabrication, design, apparel and wayfinding. We hope you get inspired and let us help you with your next project.

Project: Various graphics for Pisgah Public Market
Departments: Creative, Print
From flatbed printer to full wall, this is a giant 8' x 8' advertisement for a taphouse space for lease. Our client wanted their customers to be able to visualize what the space could be and we were tasked with making that come to life. We designed and produced a full wall ad, incorporating the feel and style of the shopping center, that will help attract a potential tenant. Shown directly above is a small window graphic we created for Just Move Fitness advertising the fitness center as a MELT method facility.

Stahlbush Island Farms came to us with an idea; a trade show booth that could also function as the actual shipping container for all the parts and pieces. We delivered that idea with more functionality that was expected. The main table was built on top of a pallet so a forklift could move the entire booth and all of its contents with ease. That same table opened up and contained 8 smaller tables, removable table legs, 5 nesting tables, portable charging stations, two dimensional logo signs, and so much more.
