The Art of
EVENT DESIGN
MILAN Through a holistic assessment of client needs, we translate the raw components of a project into a dynamic event with fresh aesthetics and hospitable touchpoints. Whether it’s a dream tablescape, celebrity Green Room experience, televised Red Carpet or bespoke set design, each aspect of the project must create a meaningful connection between guest and host. By implementing subtle, creative and powerful brand integrations with additional client requests, we allow the event focus to reflect the truest form of gracious experiential design.

Finding and Setting the
DESTINATION As is true in Real Estate is also true in Event Design and Entertainment: location, location, location. We help clients define the ideal environment that will maximize the creative vision for an event. By supplying a physical space, we establish a critical starting point from which the dreams of the client can materialize. As evidenced by our extensive portfolio of Southern mansions, secluded European beaches, city palaces and private gardens that seem otherwise unattainable, we make the impossible possible when it comes to securing the ultimate setting.
