Our triple-state chapter explored the beautiful relationship between fashion and interior design
NKBA members from Louisiana, Mississippi, and Arkansas came together on March 6th for “Fashion & Interiors: Common Threads That Shape Our Spaces”.
The event took place at Acadian House Design + Renovation in Baton Rouge and included a complimentary lunch, giving chapter members a chance to connect while staying at the forefront of design trends.
Guest speaker Annie Miranda-Sommer of Benjamin Moore presented on how trends move between the runway and the rooms we inhabit–including color palettes, layered textures, materials, and mood.
Designing for the times
In the same way that fashion captures the culture and history of its time, so do our spaces. When designers understand this intimate connection, they can better create interiors that are both current and expressive.
NKBA LA/MS/AR Chapter President Allye Pizzalato said, “Along with myself, our Chapter Officers Lacie Dunigan, Andrea Earp, Paul Blanchard and Peter Webb all had the same goal with this event. We wanted to show connections between fashion and interiors and build relationships among our chapter members.”
“We were excited to present a program that was more than simply a trend forecast,” said Pizzalato. “Our event invited attendees to think creatively about their work and broaden their design possibilities.”
