Props
Our constantly growing gallery of fashion oriented props includes chairs, stools and vintage boxes; wooden floors and decorated backdrops. In short notice we can transform a white room into an atmospheric setting, large or small.
Set build
No idea is too big or too small at The Lab. With five different studios and a wide selection of equipment, props, floors and backgrounds, we provide comprehensive set builds in studio or on location. From theater-style set design for fashion shoots to interiors and furniture, complex or minimalist, we do it all.
Production
The Lab is much more than a rental service. We offer scouting and casting, permits and location management. In order to make your time on the set as efficient as possible, each case is assigned to a production manager who fully understands your success criteria.

Republic by Fritz Hansen
Fritz Hansen’s relaunch of Arne Jacobsen’s classic chairs The Drop and Grand Prix brought us on a five-day assignment to Italy with photographer Ditte Isager, who – as always – provided stunning images for the 2014 campaign and Fritz Hansen’s Republic magazine. The Lab coordinated a full service production including location scouting, transport and logistics to reach the team’s destinations in Florence and Rome.

Omega Lifetime Magazine
After a day of building, a day of pre-lighting and a day of intense shooting in Studio 5, the editorial for Omega’s Lifetime magazine was ready.
