DE BEERS DINNER: WHERE IT BEGINS

Lupita Nyong’o, the first global brand ambassador of De Beers was invited to be the host of a lavish dinner in celebration of the “Where It Begins” advertising campaign. Held in the posh Chelsea event space at Lavan541, celebrity guests like Halle Bailey, Elaine Weltreroth, Nicole Ari Parker, and many others were immersed in an elaborate dinning experience with a musical performance by Chloë. I was the lead designer, tasked with modeing and rendering out the venue, designing the floorplan, photo op areas, and selecting the tablescape and floral arrangements. Following cues from the recently launched campaign, our team layered in organic and textural elements throughout the space including sand, boulders, and mirrors.
