At another Billy Butchkavitz-designed HBO Emmys party, held in Los Angeles in 2015, real fire was a decorative element: 24-foot-long reflecting ponds showcased multiple flaming sculptures. A 27-foot-high flame sculpture on a rotating platform was the party’s centerpiece, and ombré-patterned custom carpet covered 50,000 square feet underfoot. The event's 25-foot-high decorative perimeter walls were covered with flowing draperies embellished with iridescent paillette sequins and punctuated by 25-foot-high red lacquer columns.
