GRANGE EVENT

    I was invited to design a vignette in the Grange showroom at 200 Lexington Ave. for the launch of Grange's new outdoor furniture collection called St. Tropez. 
April 4, 2012 was the exciting building event. 
    I decided to make my vignette in their window a "Moroccan Fantasy" ....
I used Dupioni Silk in a bright orange and fuchsia combination which I had sewn into stripes, this made up the "tent". The lounge chair cushions and throw pillows were a beautiful silk print by Donghia called Spice Market. The velvet for the top of my "tent" was also by Donghia called Covet. All the seat cushions for the chairs as well as the love-seat were an intricately woven fabric called Kanthas by DesignTex. All the lighting, Brass and Copper Accessories and gorgeous rug were  loaned to me by the Stephanie Odegard showroom.  
    I think this whole project turned out really nice. Please feel free to come to the NYDC -200 Lexington Ave. Grange is on the 2nd floor. "My Marrakech Nights" window will be on display for the next three months.. By the way everything may be purchased by a design professional..
