Unique LA Booth, December 2010

Over the last few weeks I pulled off the styling task of creating a booth at Unique LA for Kindred Stones. I shopped at the Rosebowl Flea Market for mirrors, thrift shopped for a few more, got a local furniture vendor to generously loan chairs, and then went to work designing a concept for a show space worthy of featuring Kindred Stones’ gemstone jewelry. The palette I worked off of was combination of subtle and soft neutrals {grey, cream, brown} that resemble the Kindred Stones brand and coordinate with the aesthetic of their soon-to-launch website.

I arrived last Friday armed with a 40 yard roll of Muslin and my sewing machine, and came ready to transform the simple acylic walled booth into something beautiful. It was a fun project and a rare treat too; it’s not very often that I get the satisfaction of producing a project in such a short turnaround time.

Special thanks to Cisco Home in Pasadena for their willingness to loan their chairs; they were much needed and put to good use. Trish customized jewelry for Unique LA shoppers and the center table and velvet Art chairs from Cisco were ground central for all that creating. Thank you again to Laura Kate & Trish for the opportunity to collaborate; this was a lot of fun!

Unique LA comes again in the spring!
