Last Friday, we were delighted to photograph Venture Town at E-Town Festival for the wonderfully talented Christina of I-D Bohemia. As E-Town Festival states: “
“Where some of tomorrow’s most creative minds exchange ideas with today’s leading thinkers … about the opportunities that come from the evolution of technology and humanity.”
Christina and her team did an awesome job of embodying that goal in Venture Town, which she explains was “a sponsor and lounge space we created. We conceived of Venture Town as a little community within E-Town Festival, giving festival attendees and sponsors a more friendly and casual way to engage with each other than the usual business conference. Each sponsor represented an aspect of small town life, including the SERVUS Café, City of Edmonton Main Street, and Tourism Library.
Thanks Christina for commissioning us to take these photographs for you.
Christina said: ” FaBLOOMosity created gorgeous floral centerpieces for the buffet and cocktail tables. This arrangement drew inspiration from particle structures. If you look closely at the nucleus, there are flowers tucked inside.”
“This rug arrangement is inspired by the E-Town Festival logo and ideas colliding. ” said Christina.
