CONFETTI SYSTEM

If I could decorate the ultimate party of my dreams, I would hire Nicholas Anderson and Julie Ho's Confetti System to do it.  These guys have done great work with some big players: Opening Ceremony, The American Ballet, Urban Outfitters, Bergdorf Goodman.  I actually came across their work for one of my favorite bands, Beach House, at their Webster Hall show last spring.  

The show felt like a fantastical undersea geology themed carnival that washed up on shore in some cloudy New England town.  I don't know if that analogy makes any sense, but it was so beautiful and yet simple, humble and somehow glamorous all at once.  Just wonderful.  I look forward to seeing more of their work in the future... and someday maybe I'll get my dream party.

Check out their website and blog!
