LA Times / Cory Pernicano


I also want to send a big (belated) congrats to Cory Pernicano, who was featured in the LA Times last October, for The Young Hollywood Home he designed through LivingGreen. Corey's room was so luxe given he used all "green" and "sustainable" products. I also want to add that Cory met Nicole from LivingGreen from Ken's Woven Theory Party and hired him to design the room! Proof that these networking events are working!!

Estylo Magazine / Juanita Smith


Congrats to our fellow DNG member Juanita Smith! Her pillows were featured in the December issue of Estylo Magazine. See above image...and if you would like more information about her pillows please contact Juanita at jsmith@materials-marketing.com. Way to go Juanita!

(If anyone has new press, articles, job postings or anything they would like to post - please forward it to me. I would be happy to post it to the blog!)

Update....

Hi Everyone,
Hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday and New Years.

Just wanted to fill everyone in on what is in store this year with our DNG events.

Our next event will be held at Bahay Home in Culver City.
http://bahayhome.com/
I am waiting on confirmation on the date at this time, but it will be the last week in January.
We are also going to have a QandA with Kana the owner of Bahay, where we are going to discuss the nature of furniture design, manufacturing and what its like to run your own showroom.
Please take a look at the website so that you can be more familiar with the store.

We are also having our February event at HK Architecture in Glendale.
I am working on bringing in a guest designer in for that evening.

For March we are going to be at new my new Turquoise location.
Our very special guest designer will be someone who is regularly seen on HGTV, so this will be a night not to miss!

More details, updates and our invites will be sent next week.
If anyone has a comments on questions about our events please feel free to contact me.
I would love to hear any suggestions we can make to the events and please use the blog as an additional networking tool.

Looking forward to seeing you all soon!
Oh and if you have anyone who would like to be on our email list - please have them email me directly.
Take care,
Vanessa
