History
Launched in 2010, Ben and Taylor launched a company called, Design it Together, as an umbrella for their shared design projects. Later that year, they opened a small studio/storefront at street level, and began offering Risograph duplication and screen printing services via a small press. The following year, they moved Design it Together to its current location at 291 River St. which hosts multiple presses in addition to their Risograph. In June 2013, noting how their studio had evolved, Taylor and Ben changed the name of their company from Design it Together to Troy Cloth & Paper - pivoting from design services to focussing on expanding their retail offerings, printing services, and classes.
