Company: Styled Creative
What do you do? We have an event design and styling firm.
What is your aesthetic? We like to think of our aesthetic as Domino meets Elle Decor. We are always on the hunt for interesting antiques and mid century items to mix with modern pieces.
How does your studio style convey your professional aesthetic? We were very conscious of this as we designed our space. We want potential clients to get a feel for our style when they walk in the door. They see a playful mix of old and new, which is a representation of our event design style as well.
Favorite part of your studio? We love our inspiration boards. It is important for us to be surrounded by items and photos that contribute to our creative processes. The photos on the boards are constantly changing. We keep some for the event we are working on and some for our personal inspirations.
Where do you go for inspiration? We find inspiration everywhere, in fashion, art, nature, pop culture… literally everywhere. Even today we saw some interesting, architectural-looking packaging in our neighbors recycling and tried to figure out what we could do with it! We are always looking, constantly taking photos with our cell phones of interesting things we see on the street.
What tool do you use in your business that you can’t live without? One of the item that we couldn’t live without is our Russel + Hazel 3 ring binders. We LOVE them. Number one they are adorable. Number two they keep us organized. We have one for each client and they keep everyone in the office in the know.
Is there anything you’d upgrade to? We each have different ideas of what would be the ultimate upgrades to our space. Kimberly wants rootbeer on draft for anytime enjoyment and while Beka would prefer a walk-in shoe closet so heels don’t pile up under her desk.
Anything else we should know? One of our favorite traditions in the office is that we keep a polaroid camera by the door. Anytime we have friends over we always take a photo. These photos remind us of all the amazing and creative people we get to work with daily.
