NARRATIVE ENVIRONMENT DESIGN
We Don't Begin With Inventory.
We Begin With You.
Every event has a story. Our work is to uncover yours and translate it into an environment your guests can feel.
"Most events are beautiful. Few feel personal."
Walk into most luxury events and you'll see elegant flowers, beautiful linens, and stunning lighting. But something's missing. The space could belong to anyone. It tells no story. It holds no meaning.
We believe the best event environments don't just look beautiful—they feel personal. They carry the weight of history, the warmth of memory, and the poetry of a journey shared. That's what we create.
Our Signature Process
The Memory Mapping Method™
A four-phase approach that transforms your personal history into spatial storytelling.
I
Discovery
Uncovering the memories, milestones, and meaningful artifacts that define your journey.
II
Blueprint
Translating story into spatial design—lighting, materiality, layout, and experience.
III
Integration
Incorporating photographs, keepsakes, and heirlooms with refinement and intention.
IV
Execution
Building a seamless environment where guests feel your story—not just see it.

"When my father walked into the tent, he stopped. He saw the family photographs woven into the design, the colors of his mother's garden, the lighting that reminded him of summer evenings. He didn't say anything. He just held my hand and cried."
