| Brooklyn Design Firm Takes a Hands-On Approach to Invitations |
|
| Brooklyn-based graphic design firm Mélangerie Inc. offers a wide range of services for events, including decor, invites, and favors. Since opening their business last October, co-owners (and School of Visual Arts alums) Elana Dweck and Julie Tinker have worked on private and corporate projects including a Marie Antoinette-themed table with Chestnuts in the Tuileries for the recent Horticultural Society of New York gala and a three-dimensional invitation for an event at Nike’s 2008 Women in Sports Media summit in Los Angeles. Although the designers tailor the look of each project to fit their clients' needs, Dweck describes their aesthetic as “whimsical yet refined.” The team does most of its work in house, by hand, but offers design consultation for events throughout the U.S. and Canada and ships its paper goods and favors. |
