Southern Christmas Show 2008

Santa comes to Uptown…
This year was the first of what we hope to be many, many more Christmas Show Rooms at the Southern Christmas Show. We chose the uptown loft theme to enable patrons to experience a more non-traditional Christmas Celebration! Space, of course, is limited in a loft therefore more contemporary designed furniture and minimal use of accessories allowed for a spacious yet holiday oriented living space. The use of red, white and silver allows the room to glow in the spirit of the Holiday Season. The accent wall of brick not only creates a focal point within the living area but also adds a depth and texture to the space that evokes that true loft feel!
"Santa Claus Comes to Uptown"
Textured brick wall in background popular in uptown lofts.
Apply a fun, bold pattern to a small piece of furniture to make a mark on the room like this fabric on the matching cube ottomans.
Use of a double wooden rod to hang both sheers and linen window treatments.
All the trimmings...
Christmas Delivery
November 22, 2008
We had a client come to us with a request…A custom child’s bed for Christmas Day delivery! It is possible…we worked with a company called Never Grow Old Toys to create this custom CXT truck bed with mattress included for a four year old little boy to be surprised with on Christmas morning. Todd Alexander was wonderful to work with on this; it started with a photo of Daddy’s real truck and then the drawings began. It took about two months to get everything ironed out and completed but on Christmas morning everyone was in awe! The client has contacted me several times since and we have been told it is still the favorite item in the room. If you would like more information about a project like this please feel free to contact Dragonfly Designs to help make your little ones Christmas a memory!

Southern Ideal Home Show
November 21, 2008
This was our first time working with the Southern Shows to provide an inspiring design room for the Southern Ideal Home Show in September 2007. The constructed space was approximately 10 feet deep by 20 feet long. We chose to sample a contemporary look by using furniture supplied by EQ3 on South Boulevard. Included in the space was a dining area, a bar top table with a pendant light, the living area designated with the small scale sectional sofa in chocolate leather and the sleeping area with the bed that included a large fabric headboard along with a chest of drawers that helped to separate the living space from the sleeping space. The design concept behind the room was meant to show that smaller spaces can really have it all and still feel roomy and comfortable!

Pomilla Bench
November 21, 2008
This project was for a client that wanted to create a breakfast nook just off of their kitchen. The client’s desire was to make the seating area comfortable for entertaining and having conversations while she prepared meals. “I want my guests to be with me while I make dinner but I want it to feel like we are in our living area.” Therefore, the custom banquette was produced to do just that, bring the comfort of the living area into the eating area. You will notice that the seat is leather, ease of the cleaning spills and other foods. Also, the other two fabrics used are colorfast as well have been treated with a fabric protector to ensure the longevity of the piece.
