Gorgeous & Green - Global Green USA



On Dec. 12th., Global Green USA, along with various celebrities and green innovators we took part of the Gorgeous & Green Event at the Bently Reserve (Old Fed Building) in San Francisco, CA. Sillapere Events from San Francisco focuses on sustainable events. They use green friendly and sustainable solutions to their innovative design. Working with Sillapere and their staff in the past on various projects we were delighted to be asked to work with them again. We provided our various supply of LEDs with other energy efficient lighting and Eileen Reo from IO Lighting supplied (12) 3' x 5° LED strips from the 'line 2.0 series'. We used (10) white (3000° K) for cove backlighting and (2) Green line strips for wall washers. I thought I'd share a link from the footage that was shot for 'View from the Bay' on ABC 7. The site says the video footage will be available for about 90days. Pictures won't be available for a little while on our site, but there is some nice information out there about the event, the amazing fashion show, and Global Green on Google. We kept to a really simple design and used highlights to bring out various portions of the elements. The Tactile Zone featuring various living designs had a nice dim light glow. It wasn't so pleasing for somes cameras, (especially cell cameras) but for the eye, it was relaxing and we accomplished more by doing so. By working more LEDs into our design we hope to achieve a much more sustainable approach to green lighting design. We used conventional lighting, but again we kept it to a minimum and created a nice ambiance for a lounge, fashion show runway, vip lounge, silent auction, and even the new 'Tesla Car' out side. While any event is meaningful in its own way, sustainable events and projects, green building and energy. We're excited to be part in any capacity.
