A swing set designed to look like the Brooklyn Bridge provided a New York-theme station for attendees.
Traveling mass yoga event Lolë White Tour returned to Toronto’s Exhibition Place on July 27. The event, which was sponsored by Pandora jewelry company, invited participants to wear white and participate in a sunset yoga session on branded yellow mats.
The event offered a photo op in the form of giant 3-D letters spelling out the name of the Canadian activewear brand.
The second edition of Panorama music festival took place July 28 to 30 at Randall’s Island. The American Express Experience, which was produced by Momentum Worldwide, offered music-theme stations including a photo backdrop of more than 200 hanging metallic mics and the experience hashtag in blue.
Sponsor HP invited guests to participate in a number of immersive art activities inside a branded dome. These included designing and printing custom scarfs on the HP Pavilion X360 by using Windows Ink, taking 120-degree light painting photos designed by artist Eric Park, dancing to manipulate virtual reality by artist Android Jones, and creating kaleidoscope patterns that were reflected in laser light shows on the dome.
Color Factory, a pop-up art installation from lifestyle website Oh Happy Day, is open in San Francisco in a formerly vacant building at 575 Sutter St. through August 30. A room filled with 207,000 yellow balls has fun and inspirational sayings written on the walls, such as “Celine Dijon” and “There are nice people all around you.”
Guests can draw in a larger-than-life coloring book using a six-foot marker.
The formerly vacant building was covered in eye-catching vertical stripes.
The rosé-inspired, invite-only dinner series from former Style.com and Vogue party reporter Kristin Tice Studeman ran July 7 to 28 at the Surf Lodge in Montauk, New York. For the final dinner, the Popup Florist strung individual flowers in vibrant shades above the table.
The 35th edition of the Rammys, an award gal for Washington’s restaurant industry, took place July 30 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. This year, the gala played host to a separate event, the Citi Open Player Party, which took place simultaneously. Design Foundry used wood panels and boxwoods to create a separate space.
