Elite Productions International

With every season that comes, the team at Elite Productions International takes it upon themselves to creatively challenge themselves with a distinctive, while aesthetically pleasing design concept for their showroom. This summer was no different - with a varied display of elements and an energetic color palette making quiet the statement.  While most summer design tropes revolve around patriotic displays of "red, white, and blue" or more whimsical imagery like "pineapples" or "flamingos", Elite decided on a different approach. Pastels, according to CEO and Creative Director Lili Shadab, were the main inspiration behind the look: "Spring and Summer are a wonderful reminder of all things soft and pretty! The abundance of pink blossoms in spring and the aqua blue tones of ocean water in the summer are what inspired this season's direction. This palette makes me think of the fabulous designs of the Hotel Bel-Air in the 1970's - eve

After last year's 2016 colors of the year, "Rose Quartz" and "Serenity", "Greenery" comes as a fresh and revitalizing tone for the year - symbolizing an energetic new beginning. Perhaps the most obvious evocation for the color is nature itself - "greenery" omnipresent throughout the natural world - luscious foliage, deep pastures of grass, and wild forestry.

As the saying goes, “home is wherever I lay my hat” – and in the case of the modern businessman’s case, that would be the countless hotel rooms frequented for conferences and networking events. The uniform and neutral landscape that often comprises hotel interiors may not leave a notable impression on guests. When orchestrating a corporate conference with executives coming from all reaches from the globe, a profound impression is the desired effect to leave on event attendees.
