// THE OPENING OF GEKKO MIAMI

//

CKD’s newest bespoke work for David Grutman and Bad Bunny’s Gekko. WHAT. A. SPACE. Four completely different bespoke prints, each area its own vibe - yet all work together as you move through the space. These prints were a true collaboration with the most creative minds. We wanted Japanese steakhouse but elevated. My goal with the Geisha mural was to create something unexpected. I hand painted palm leaves and selected florals found on the traditional Japanese Kimono. The color story was suggested by my close friend (& talented interior designer) Kayla Pongrac - a very popular color story we kept seeing while in Milan design week also (I just realized I never did a post about Milan design week! Will do this this week). Scroll down to see some behind the scenes photos from installation day! 

Love the way this turned out. Thank you Groot Hospitality for having me. 

Opening night was INSANE. See more here!

Me on-site! The mural wraps all the way around the space. We printed out 8 FT samples to make sure the scale was perfect. Every single inch counts - this is what separates a good print from a great one.
