INSTALLATION

Our clients have finally moved into their new home that you saw here and here. A huge thanks to the entire team for working together to finish this project as smoothly as possible! We have enjoyed every minute of the process, and we will certainly miss the team moving forward. Also, thank you to our clients. They have been so much fun to work with and we are excited to provide them a fabulous house they can call home.

There are still a few finishing touches, but for the most part the house is up and running. Check out some snapshots of the progress so far -

IIDA DRESSED 2013

This year’s IIDA Dressed theme was World Events throughout the Seasons. We were assigned First Human Flight and immediately pinned down Spinneybeck, Filzfelt, and Corporate Environments as our sponsors. The event is always so rewarding when your hard work comes to life on the runway. All of the teams' creations were incredibly inspiring this year.

Wings!

We drew our inspiration for the wings from Leonardo da Vinci's schematic drawings, while incorporating vintage glamour and elegant detailing with the leather and the felt. Our theme was technically associated with the season fall, so we chose blues and whites you would find in a fall sky as our color palette.

Jason Smith, owner of Smithworks Iron, volunteered his time to create the most fabulous, show-stopping wings for us. These pieces elevated our garment to another level and we are so grateful for his help this year. Spinneybeck contributed all of the leather for the garment, helmet, and boots, while Filzfelt donated the felt. Filzfelt also saved us valuable time by CNC cutting all of the felt feathers for us with their new CNC cutting machine.
