Czar Co

Chicago, Illinois, United States

Trade show booths, experiential activations, and event production under one roof since 1947

Founded in Chicago in 1947 as a family-owned exhibit house, the business has grown into Czarnowski Collective—four specialized studios operating under a single banner rather than as separate vendors. Over decades it has delivered large-scale activations for Fortune 500 brands at events such as CES and SXSW, and has run full-service trade show programs for clients with global footprints.

Work covers strategy, creative, fabrication, technology, and temporary architecture, handled in-house across the four studios. Creative output ranges from hyper-real visuals and motion graphics to immersive digital environments, paired with premium structures, signage, and interiors built using sustainable methods. The studios frame their work as experiential creative meant to challenge convention and connect brands with culture, drawing on more than 70 years of exhibit and event-production history.

Production facilities in Atlanta, Denver, St. George, and Cologne, Germany handle fabrication and technical builds, while sales and services offices reach from the Chicago headquarters into New York, Charlotte, Orlando, Las Vegas, Pittsburgh, Lodi, Portland, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., New Orleans, and Toronto. That spread gives clients regional points of contact for programs spanning trade show booths, temporary architecture, and large-format brand activations across North America and Europe.
