MIRAGE ... visualized in the late 70's.

The first of nine locations ... was opened in Sausalito, California ... a coastal sea-town,

north of the Golden Gate Bridge ... known for it's artisan crafts and spectacular San Francisco views.

Mirage Gallery & Framing first offered it's services to the public as a photographic art gallery

displaying local scenics, and providing interactive picture framing.

Mirage Gallery & Framing … was a very unique concept ... a watch while you wait framing service,

conveniently located next door to a a California wine tasting room, to further enhance the adventure.

"Our goal was simple … make the entire art and frame experience fun

and offer only the best of quality materials for an affordable price."

Mirage Gallery & Framing … customers chose their artwork, mat colors and picture frame
then in less than an hour ... their custom framed artwork was crafted before their eyes,
boxed for their travels back to their home town of … New York … Texas … Georgia ... or Rome !

In the early 80's local artists and film studios took note of this efficient framing concept

and became  our clients  at Mirage Showroom.

Mirage Showroom was a visionary art gallery built with a passion for shapes, a crazy attention to detail,

multi-leveled rooms ... imported marble floors … hand-made copper ceilings and light as you pass ~ illumination

created specifically for our dramatic gala events

"Regardless of the project size … our MIRAGE vision has always been focused on imagination and its emotional rewards !"

In the same year ... Mirage Designs was opened …

as a commercial picture framing and art packaging service.

Mirage Designs provides unique matting, framing and packaging materials

for artists wanting to resell their own reproductions at galleries, art-shows & retail shops.

"Simplicity in design became our reputation."
