Lots of installations to show you this week. In addition to the Fall windows at Half Moon Books, I also helped install my 3rd annual Tousey Winery booth for the Hudson Valley Wine & Food Fest. Needless to say, it was a busy week.

My adorable clients, Ben and Kimberly Peacock (see below) always want to outdo themselves with the booth design, year after year. This year, I wanted to highlight their craft and how painstakingly they work on their wines. It’s an art form.

That’s where the art gallery theme came to be. Crisp white walls, bright lights and artwork. The gold frames highlight their products and the wall decals in my fave Helvetica font display their menu and tell their story. The philosophy behind their wines and their craft… Like an artist’s statement that you’d see at a gallery.

My fave is the light up podium at the front showcasing their sparkling wine… The Loic named after their youngest son. Oh, we also won best booth! Cheers…

Main Tasting Room

I am so happy to finally get to show you all the amazing work we completed at Tousey Winery. We did quite a phenomenal transformation.

Here's what we did in the Main Tasting Room...

• Removed existing tile and exposed concrete slap. Polished and sealed

• Added bricks to back bar wall

• Wood framed mirrors to either side of existing menu

• New curved bar with polished concrete top. We added pergo flooring boards to the face of the bar to give it that found wood vide. Edison bulb lighting.

• Gray feature wall has an old Tousey Winery sign that they used to use in past trade show booths.

• Sliding barn door to private tasting room

• A renovated retail boutique (not pictured)

• window seating (not pictured)

• new bathroom (not pictured)

• Farm table seating with edison bulb chandelier

Check out the booth design that I assisted on for Tousey Winery's recent exhibition at the 2017 Hudson Valley Food and Wine Festival.

We created an initial "floral arch" at the booth's front with hanging flowers for dramatic impact. A second structure was installed within the booth for additional foliage, display, menus and branding. Tousey Winery won both "Best Winery" and "Best Booth" with this display.

The amazing floral arrangements were designed and installed by Shehung Ji from Athabold Flowers.
