Rhizome Design and Images is an integrated design and marketing company specializing in work for socially responsible and eco-friendly businesses, including NBIS. Owner, Jen Pennington and Photographer Bob Pennington also donate trees to ReLeaf Funds through AmericanForests.org through purchases of both custom and stock photography from their Rhizome Images Collection. The Collection is a unique image resource for businesses and green technologies that feature the good, the bad, and the alternative in sustainability and industry.
Graphics Plus is an independent, responsible printer offering craftsman quality offset and modern high-end digital printing. Owner David Hell will offer a tour of his shop, (recently retrofitted shop with new lighting through the Seattle City Light program) and talk about some of his newer investments, including chemistry-free plating equipment.
Together this design firm and print shop has been teaming up for over 14 years and employs practices that minimizes harm to the environment and gives back to the community. View samples of stunning visual work, and understand the value of services that go beyond the delivery of a product printed on recycled paper.
Ample street parking is available and if the weather is nice, we’ll be able to open to open the doors and look out into the greenspace across the street. Delicious organic beer from Elliott Bay Brewing Company and sustainable and organic wine from Left Coast Cellars will be served.
