pALETTE pERSpECTIVES ABOUT THE DESIGNER

CHRISTOPHER CONFERO chrIsTopher confero desIgn

Christopher Confero approaches every design with new and fresh ideas. His knowledge of floral design, lighting, graphics, space planning and decor allows him to offer full event development from concept to execution. His signature style, modern luxury, combines modern style with traditional elements -- but insist they have meaning for today. “It’s thrilling for me to take on the challenge of integrating your style in combination with my design aesthetic, and give birth to an amazing production.”

CONCEPT

When we assigned Chris to “Dapper,” we wanted him to think effortless cool. It’s the sort of design that was marked by neat, trim decor and the classically styled details that eventually inspired the original dapper Dan. A dapper party is incredibly smart, sexy and always stylish.

MY TAKE

“I am currently in LOvE with navy & gold so I was ecstatic when Heather assigned me this color scheme. To top it all off with a ‘dapper’ twist, it couldn’t have been any more Confero than if I’d selected it all myself. I wanted everything to be reflective of my aesthetic but still be relatable to a bride. I used a dynamic & bold graphic, paired it with shimmering metallics and voilà - a perfect pallette.” In my wildest dreams... Jacqueline and John F. Kennedy would most likely be spotted celebrating at this table.
