Helium balloon outdoor canopy by Gustafson Porter

After the success of our Christmas/Hanukkah stylised party in the park in December (and all your lovely comments about the photos! Thankyou!)… event styling in all its forms has been catching my eye :)


How’s this gorgeous idea for a loose, flowing outdoor canopy? LOVE IT! So simple and effective. And cheap!

The design is by London landscape architecture firm Gustafson Porter, for the Venice Architectural Biennale.

    yes I know, unfortunately that’s the first thing that sprang to my mind too.. it’s such a great idea it just begs to be copied!

    I know exactly what you mean Manisha. It is so simple. And also very elegant.
