decor

Signage from event sponsor Browns Shoes decorated the dance floor at Fashion Magazine's 35th anniversary event.

In a smart move that avoided the complications that come with laying carpet over stairs—especially on a snowy night in New York—the event's producers projected a strip of red light over the library's front steps, effectively creating a virtual red carpet that led to the entrance. Hundreds of LED candles sat on either side of the illuminated pathway.

To create a modern, all-white look for a 2006 dinner at Manhattan’s Pier 60, Empire Force Events hid the venue’s colorful, patterned carpet with a layer of large, white confetti. 

Silver sequins covered a black carpet at Skylight for the Whitney Museum of American Art's ArtParty—a benefit for the museum's young social set.

The surface of the runway was painted with colorful, retro graphics.

At Le Bain, the silver Mylar chandeliers matched the disco balls that filled the pool. A plexiglass pane covered the pool, creating a stage for the night's performer.

In a section dubbed the "damier lawn," monogrammed bags sat atop a patchwork of grass and flowers.
