Head in the clouds.
Bunnies grounded below -

Some of our early work with .

We created a space where form floats, but still holds.

Soft structures, quiet surrealism, and just enough tension to keep it interesting.

Built by hand, start to finish.

Created for ’s “For Spring, a Rainbow of Purses” each island was sculpted, refined and plastered then finished with real sand. Florals were pulled from past projects and reworked into a new context. 

We kept the landscape quiet with neutral tones and softened edges.

The bags did exactly what they were meant to do - hold color and attention. 🌈

Check it out in this weekend’s ✨

A moment for Misty Copeland at the Oscars 🩰

Revisiting this story for Harper’s Bazaar - 
“The Red Shoes” 70th anniversary.

Built to hold contrast:
discipline + emotion,
structure + softness
…the ballerinas do the rest

A look back - 

‘These Actresses Dominate Not Just the Stage, but the Screen Too’ 🔥

Creating worlds for TMagazine is always such a joy- we love taking an idea, a reference, a story and bringing it to life through color, composition, and the strength of an amazing team.

Huge thanks

From the archives.

Custom-painted and sewn fabrics flooded and framed the studio, creating a stage for the ever-talented team to build their wild bramble of untamed branches.

As noted by , untamed branches feel like an apt symbol for turbulent times — less the cool refinement of a simple bloom, more an imposing and irrepressible kind of beauty.

Several of the branches from this installation were later repurposed across future experiential builds — a reminder that bold materials can live many lives.

Huge Thanks

From the archive✨

An enchanted forest brought indoors for T Magazine’s at —where it was impossible to tell where the dining room ended and the garden began.
Foraged mushrooms, mossy branches, and topiary monkeys floated overhead. Fallen leaves and creeping ferns grounded the space. Candlelight, fairy lights, and a perfectly timed rainstorm did the rest.

This is what we love most about experiential design: building environments that linger in memory, shaped by texture, light, and the smallest details—each one intentional, each one felt.

Grateful to the visionary collaborators who brought this world to life:
