BETA 1.0.2 full release on June 1, 2007

30 years after beginning what became a successful career as an internationally respected illustrator and designer, Bob Staake decided to create his ultimate, dream studio -- from the ground up. having moved to a 200-year-old new england home in the historic district of chatham, massachusetts on the elbow of cape cod, staake elected to replace a modest barn on his property with a studio that he designed from scratch -- and to document the entire process via state of the art studio.com. building on the exact 12' x 20' footprint where the original building stood, the new three-level structure was erected with modularity, convenience and user-friendliness being the goal -- and then outfitting the studio with the best products, components and materials available to discriminating artists, writers, designers and aesthetically-minded professionals. the idea was to take the guesswork out of the creation of a state of the art workspace -- and enable others to find the best products when outfitting their own working environments. from windows to flooring, seating to storage units, lighting to computer equipment -- these products are donated by manufacturers and distributors to the state of the art studio project -- and are promoted on the web site, in interviews with the artist and in the editorial press in the design trade publications that write about the creation of this showcase workspace. every product donated to state of the art studio is displayed on a unique web page within this web site -- along with general product information, photos, and a hyperlink enabling others to purchase the product for themselves. if you are a manufacturer or retailer of high-end products for the discriminating design professional, then this is your invitation to participate in the state of the art studio project. simply look at the products page on the site -- and see where you fit in. then email us so we can integrate, promote and highlight your products, components and materials within the state of the art studio. we look forward to working with you. click here to see our products page
