Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

As many of you know I’ve recently begun shift­ing my focus to design for events, through Seamless Paperie. So today I am extremely excited to unveil my lat­est project, a con­tri­bu­tion to Nonpareil Magazine! For those not in the know Nonpareil is a online pub­li­ca­tion all about mod­ern wed­dings from a DIY per­specive. It was designed and cre­ated by Maddy of The Inspired Bride and Kristen of Paper Crave, two blogs that you should check out imme­di­ately if you haven’t already.

So this lat­est issue, “A Silver Screen Soirée”, is all about wed­dings and events inspired by TV and film. Each team was faced with the task of tak­ing a film and devel­op­ing it into a full blown event, from paper goods to flow­ers to table décor and so on. And my team, which con­sisted of the amaz­ingly tal­ented Sarah Brysk Cohen of Blossom of Branch and pho­tog­ra­pher Maggie Harkov—we also used a color board by Amanda Halbrook of 100 Layer Cake as our color palette inspiration/jumping off point — worked with Alfred Hitchcock’s To Catch a Thief.

It was a lot of work, but so. Much. Fun. I would gladly do it again in a heart­beat. Please check out our entire spread start­ing on page 40, and def­i­nitely don’t miss all of the other events in this over­sized issue. We are in amaz­ing company!
