How it runs

  1. 01

    Brief in

    Send what you have. We turn it into a structured brief and confirm scope, formats and deadline.

  2. 02

    Research and shortlist

    We search the Historical and Modern catalogs and outside archives and send a shortlist per room or theme.

  3. 03

    Sources and rights

    Each approved work gets a verified source, licence status and the best available master file.

  4. 04

    Fill the gaps

    Where nothing fits, ONLLY Studio creates new work to match the rest of the collection.

  5. 05

    Production files

    Masters sized per wall, named to your spec sheet.

Research on its own

You do not need exact titles to start. A question such as "late nineteenth-century botanical material with an unusual scientific feel" is a valid brief. We return a reviewed research set with sources documented, and you decide what comes next.

FAQ

Do you only use your own catalogs?

No. We search the Historical and Modern catalogs and outside archives, and tell you where each work comes from.

Can I order research without production?

Yes. Research can stand alone. You receive a reviewed set with sources, and decide what to do with it.

Do I get a licence for the works I choose?

Yes. Each approved work comes with its source and licence for your use.

What does it cost and how long does it take?

Both depend on volume and research depth. After the brief we reply with a plan, a timeline and a price.

Have a project to research?

Send the brief as it is. We reply with a plan, a timeline and a price.
