Roche Bobois Launch with Marcel Wanders

Roche Bobois has launched a new furnishings collection with designer Marcel Wanders. To celebrate, Roche Bobois and Architectural Digest hosted an event at the magical Houdini Estate in Hollywood’s infamous Laurel Canyon. It was an amazing party filled with creativity transporting us through three countries and their cities: Istanbul, Paris, and London for the “Globe Trotter” theme.

We began in “Istanbul” where there was a hookah lounge set up on the entry level.

Which also included a spread of Turkish deserts, nuts and spices along with Turkish coffee.

The lush grounds of the Houdini Estate took us to the next level via steep steps and a bridge.

The background on the second level was “Paris” with park benches and bistro chairs and tables, music and a mime.

A map of the estate and themed areas which also included activities, such as an area where you could make your own perfume.

On the top level was “London” which included a fun Polaroid photo booth.

It was a fun night with design friends (l-r): Edith Ponciano, Giuseppe Colucci, Kam Kamran, and Allan Dallatorre.

And with the designer himself - Marcel Wanders! (Whom I first had the pleasure of meeting back in 2012 on Blog Tour London.)
