#DesignDisrupted VIP Lounge

The #DesignDisrupted VIP Lounge was designed as a hideaway in which celebrities, designers and fashion editors could relax and mingle in between runway shows during New York Fashion Week, Fall ’15.  The dynamic, immersive installation was inspired by natural phenomena such as rock formations and undulating sound waves.
