from pixels to prints.

a printmaking workshop for screen-heavy teams.

when did you last make something with your hands?

your team lives on screens. slack. zoom. figma. notion. the average office worker switches between apps and screens hundreds of times a day. attention fragments. creativity narrows. and somewhere along the way, the physical, the tactile, the genuinely human gets quietly crowded out.

screen swap brings an ancient screen printing process directly to your team. no experience needed. no design background required. no staring at pixels. just a room full of people ready to make something real.

it is the kind of reconnection that screen-heavy teams rarely get. not because it is nostalgic. because it is real.

you are overdue a real break

your team deserves a session that genuinely disconnects.

you are planning an offsite

you want something more memorable than trivia night.

you want something people keep

it creates a physical object people actually take home.

you want something everyone can do

no skill needed. no creative background required. just hands and instincts.

sustainability matters to your organisation

you want materials that reflect your ESG values.

you want to mark a moment

a milestone, a celebration, an end of chapter. something worth making.

why it works.

screen printing is individual by nature. each person makes their own piece. but that is exactly what makes it work as a team experience.

the group moves through a shared process together, starting with a collective design direction and ending with a gallery moment where the variety across the group becomes the point. same process. same starting point. genuinely different results. just like a great team.

made with intention.

screen swap is built on two kinds of intention: what we make with and how we make it.

every session uses eco-friendly, water-based Permaset Aqua inks — vegan, low odour, non-toxic and made right here in Sydney by Colormaker Industries in Brookvale. where possible I print onto 100% natural linen or 100% cotton, prioritising materials that are kind to the environment and honest in their making.

but intention goes beyond materials. every session is designed to give your team the space to slow down, think differently and make something deliberately. in a world that rewards speed and automation, choosing to make something by hand, with care, with focus, with your own instincts, is itself an act of intention.

for organisations with sustainability commitments or ESG considerations, screen swap offers a team experience that reflects those values. not just in what is used, but in how people show up to make it.

the person behind the screens.

screen swap is run by Ashlea Vallance, marketing director, creative strategist, and founder of The Screenery. she has delivered successful marketing campaigns across corporate, media, and brand partnerships, including an award-winning brand experience at Vivid Sydney 2024.

she founded the screenery in 2020, a screen printing practice grounded in craft, colour, and considered design, and brings that same strategic and creative intelligence to every screen swap session. this is not a side project. it is a deliberate extension of a career spent at the intersection of creativity, strategy, and impact.
