WHAT IS THE SECRET DESIGN PARTY?

The Secret Design Party is an exclusive interior design masterclass that will equip you with the knowledge, skills and confidence to create your own stylish, organised and happy space.

Brought to you by professional interior designer, Gwendoline Alderton, this masterclass was created especially for you because 90% of women have said they’re unhappy with their homes even after you’ve redecorated.

The most common disappointments include:

1) you’ve gone over budget and made expensive mistakes

2) you feel overwhelmed by colour so you play it safe and your room is bland

3) there’s too much choice and you’ve bought the wrong things

4) your design doesn’t go to plan so it’s not the room of your dreams

5) you don’t know where to start so your room is left looking dated or unfinished

The Secret Design Party will share designer insights that give you the expertise needed to create your perfect space that’s within budget and always looks amazing. This interior design masterclass will show you a different approach of rapid design. You’ll be amazed how simple and effective it can be to create your dream space.

I’ve gone from dreading it, to being absolutely delighted and excited about the design.”

Please join us for a panel discussion with three French artisans who are part of the French craftsmanship collective based in New York, PAR EXCELLENCE.

For a long time relegated to the background, craftsmen are now returning to the forefront of the design scene. Yet even today, it seems that there are still two distinct worlds, which sometimes refuse to communicate. However, a historical approach to craftsmanship and interior design show us that they have common roots. So how can they collaborate? How should they collaborate?

These craftsmen will discuss how they work hand-in-hand with interior designers to create unique pieces and projects. Nowadays, craftsmanship is at the heart of many interior design projects. Designers are looking for new and rare craft talents. They are seeking know-how, quality, beautiful materials and inspiration. These craftsmen’s projects show how designers can see their ideas coming to life, but also the difficulties they can encounter when they collaborate.

The discussion will include two recent collaborations: First, the design of Par Excellence’s showroom on the Bowery, which is a collaboration with Thomas Pheasant. Then, the “Illuminations” collection, that was designed by Mathieu Lehanneur for AD Intérieurs 2018 in Paris and crafted by these craftsmen.
