Brocade Bites!

This is our 3rd year participating in "Sensational Settings", a great event that showcases table top displays from over 30 local designers, and we must say we really enjoyed it, especially when this event benefits St. Luke's Home.

For this year's display we wanted to present something festive, luscious, sexy...We wanted to showcase a sophisticated, modern, fun style, that's why we chose our two principal characters for this movie: "Brocade" as the central graphic motif that will bring sophistication, glamour and finesse, and accent pieces in different shades of "Purple", to add mistery, sexiness and depth to our color palette: the result, a Clubie-Chic environment reminiscent of Sex & the City meets Voodoo lounge... We had a great response from the attendees of this event, for our surprise-and pleasure, many guests living their "golden years" loved the idea!, and told us that they really pictured themselves having a party like this!

Let me re-capitulate some of the words that came out of people's mouths with regards to our display: "New York Club, Martinis, Fun, Comfortable, Sexy, more Martinis!, Chic, Cozy, elegant, modern, contemporary, posh, etc, etc,etc.

NOTES: In this picture, our Quaddro Sectional in ivory, Round Retro Ottoman in eggplant, Lighted Tables with brocade adornment, mirrored column, black mink throw, Ivory Rug, accent pillows in Velvet, Silk, Satin and Damask, brocade votives, Glass House Tray, cube glass vases, black brocade China and purple Glassware.

Magical Fall...

Arizona is blessed with the best weather during the Fall, that's why as soon as the thermometer drops, people from all around the world come here to enjoy our beautiful sky, plagued with stars and deep blues... During the Fall, our business resumes and many of our clients want us to help them create Outdoor events, and why wouldn't they?, after all, the weather is perfect, the views fantastic and the reasons to celebrate life, endless!

Call us to let us help you create your next unique event!

LIGHTED FURNITURE, Our Newest!

We remember a couple of times attending conferences in Miami and New York with set ups that were both modern and dramatic, and both of the times the element in common was LIGHTED FURNITURE...We thought about it, found the best company to build them for us and now we are so excited to introduce our new "Luz Series Lighted Furniture", with all the possibilities this represents: Lighted Bars of different shapes and sizes, product displays, coffee tables, accent tables, highboys, benches, catwalks, entry arches, stages, etc.

Our "Luz Series" has the ability to change to any color you might want, including changing several times throughout the event!

Feel free to call us to learn more about it, we will be happy to assist you

with prices and Design ideas.

Latest Events...

Fortunately, we had a busy Summer, with some events that were a delight to Design! We just wanted to share some of these images with you and get you inspired to let us help you plan your next event!

LoungINg!

One of our favorite publications when it comes to unique-dazzling Weddings is Grace Ormonde's Wedding Style Magazine, there you will find the newest trends, but most of all, fabulous design ideas to create unique events that are lavish and with a great level of taste.

In their newest edition, they published an article about how Weddings are favoring the swanky look of "Lounge" settings, something we've been praising for about 5 years, and what better endorsement than this prestigious publication to let our clients know that we can help them create Lounge environments that are up to par with anything the big cities around the world have to offer.

Please enjoy the article, and get inspired for your upcoming event, we will be happy to help you realize your vision, 'cause we believe as well as you do, that Lounge is so In!

A "Lounge" Ceremony?

Recently we worked on an event at the Valley-Ho in Scottsdale, and the client asked us to create a "Lounge Ceremony", for us that represented a great opportunity to showcase our furniture in a kind of unexpected way...We decided to use one of our newest items, the Lola Bench in white, as well as some Lounge Ottomans to create a "more design" look, the result, we believe, is visually astonishing, simply Chic and unique. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

PS. Thank you Sergio (Sergio Photographer) for the great pictures you took for us, your talent is greatly appreciated!

We Love Weddings!

When we first started our company, we were working almost exclusively with Corporate accounts, clean, functional, structured type of events. Many times, the colors for our accent pieces were (and still are) dictated by the color of the company's logo we are working for, and I believe that is great, but ask Paloma, our Designer, and she will tell you hands down she prefers Weddings! My question is: Why choosing the intense drama charged atmosphere first consultation, where the couple often is accompanied by the mother, the aunt, the friend and the neighbor? (of course I've been facetious, we've been so lucky since all of our wedding clients are more hip and independent and always know what they want!) over a simple e-mail message, e-mail proposal/layout, wait for an answer, then a check of a Corporate event? I know the answer: Weddings offer the Designer the capability to help to create unique and memorable events, and most of the times, challenges the talent of the Designer, which applies all his (in this case "her") experience in order to create a special event that has been envisioned by the couple (and whoever else they decide to invite to the table!).

Weddings offer the possibility to create unique environments with the usage of color, texture, lighting, fabrics, flowers, scents and every little detail to mesmerize the senses, and believe us when we say that our clients are not afraid of none of this!

We love when a couple approach us with their great ideas and the vision they have for their very special day, and we love to see their reaction the day of the event, when they see that we took everything they told us into consideration, and of course, we added more! We feel that we just did something transcendental, at least for the two of them and for all of their families and friends, that hopefully will remember their wedding day as a very unique and special one, that is simply the best feeling!

After all these things I've said, I guess you won't have a doubt in your mind:

WE LOVE WEDDINGS!

NOTE: Thank you to our friends of Pangburn Photography for the terrific pictures, you guys are great to work with!

The Colors of Spring...

Spring is here! Wherever you go you can see the dessert in bloom, vibrant yellows and purples cover the sideways... This is the perfect time to plan an outdoor event. You can start by creating a relaxing atmosphere with different groupings, we suggest you to go free style and use different pieces to create a more "design" and chic atmosphere. Whatever you do, make sure to use plenty of color: accent pillows, flowers, rugs, votive candles, flowers, special lighting, everything adds to the beautiful feeling of being part of the awakening of nature.

Feel free to call us to start planning your Spring event, and be surprised about all the new items we've got for the season!
