For a bit of color and design inspiration, head to MOCA Pacific Design Center, where the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles will present "Feathered Edge: A New Installation by Ball-Nogues Studio," which opens on Sunday and remains on view through November 15. The Los Angeles-based design and fabrication firm headed by Benjamin Ball and Gaston Nogues created the site-specific piece using 17 miles of colored string that spans the gallery with curving lines. Through the installation, Ball and Nogues explore the intersection between digital technology and hand-made work—an exploratory walk may spark any number of other event-applicable ideas.
![For the after-party, Event Eleven built three 30-foot pagodas and hung 300 lanterns from the ceiling. They also brought in a 20-foot-tall bonsai tree and a variety of 30-foot red maples, along with other greenery and foliage. '[It all] helped create the organic atmosphere and helped transport guests into a gardenlike room,' said Schubert.](https://img.bizbash.com/files/base/bizbash/bzb/image/2024/02/Shogun.41_f.65dba8f23433b.png?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
