“Our vision was to create a fun summer event that exudes a casual elegance and celebrates design,” said committee member Yiannos Vrousgos of Input Creative Studio, (basket above) who helped design the vignettes. “We were aiming to target a younger demographic and it was important for us to keep ticket costs low and bring in new designers to DIFFA. In past events only interior designers and architects have participated—for the picnic, we invited fashion designers, graphic designers, costume designers, product designer, set designers, stylists and photographers to participate, bringing a whole new audience to the event!”
