CBA Awards Gala.
THE BRIEF //
CBA commissioned us to bring to life their vision for a nuanced interpretation of a NZ inspired look for their awards dinner. Each detail needed to be elegant and considered.
THE THINKING //
Our aim was to make the space feel warm and inviting. For many guests this was their first time in New Zealand and so we were careful to infuse the styling with authentic details and rich textures.
THE MAKING //
We began with a long trestle format to evoke the family meal, laid with a beautiful stonewashed linen. Layers of texture were added through stoneware, crystal glassware, gold cutlery and napkin rings and a personalised menu.
New Zealand native foliage centrepieces and installation bought life and vibrancy to the look and along with details like the inclusion of a pounamu texture and bespoke pinch pots featuring West Coast sand by a NZ artisan immersed guests in a uniquely NZ experience.
THE SUCCESS //
No detail was overlooked from arrival to the last moment on the dance floor. Guests were wowed with a once in a lifetime experience.
