Since the last Chapter Design Magazine, we have had some pretty amazing events take place. The Chairs for Charity was an enchanting evening at the Orange County Museum of Art in Newport Beach. Talented designers offered up very unique chairs and valuable packages for auction resulting in a profitable sum earmarked for the Ronald McDonald House renovation project. Our Chapter's Expo at the Hotel Irvine in June was another impressive event. There was something for everyone, including a world-renowned

You may be thinking, ahhhhh, summer! Time to relax and sit around the pool, drink icy cold beverages, and enjoy the scenery… ASID is winding down and the new board is sitting around waiting for the new term to begin. W-R-O-N-G!

Your new board is just revving up and getting in high gear, planning for 2016-2017!

Our strategic planning has many different steps:

First, we sent out a survey to all our membership. We want to hear what we’re doing right and where we are falling short. Thank you to all who answered. Your input was invaluable.

Second, I put together a focus group made up of people who brought perspectives from Industry Partners, Student Faculty, Public Relations, Commercial Design, National ASID, Emerging Professionals, and Seasoned Professionals. Then I began talking with my board individually with one-to-one meetings, spending quality time just talking about the chapter from their respective board positions.

Finally together as a board, we began sorting through all the feedback, held a brainstorming session and came up with many wonderful and exciting ideas.

Your board will be attending Chapter Leadership Training in Minneapolis in July. We’ll be comparing notes while engaging with other chapters from around the country. If my past experiences at CLC are any indication, we will be super jazzed when we return, set to complete our Strategic Plan, and come October we will be ready to hit the road running!

We are looking forward to shaking things up a little and bringing you new programs and events which will excite and stimulate your design senses whether you are a designer, industry partner, or student.

At the Gala you will hear more specifics of our plans, and have the opportunity to meet your new board members for 2016-2017. They are: Naz Seyedi, President-Elect; Kathy Booker, Financial Director; Cynthia Prizant, Professional Development; Kasey Sterling, Communications Director; Michele Prata, Membership Director; Celeste Lehman, Director at Large; and Alex Page, Student Rep to the Board.

I look forward to seeing you all at the Casino in San Clemente September 18th. In addition to installing the new board, we will be honoring excellence in design with our annual Design Awards. And for the first time we will be presenting a Legacy Award to Dorian Hunter.

So put on your party dress, come celebrate and find out what’s new with ASID Orange County!

Regards,

Adriel Cogdal, ASID ASID CA Orange County Chapter President-Elect 2015-2016

ASID Expo Recap

By Elisabeth D’Angelo, Allied ASID, Membership Drive Chair On June 10, 2016 at the contemporary Hotel Irvine, ASID OC had their annual Industry Partners Expo. It was a sunny day in Irvine, and the venue location was just perfect for the event. The beautiful outdoor setting with a 6,000 square foot pavilion was filled with our members, industry partners and students. The food was outstanding and the tables were full of delicious cheese platters, veggie platters, desserts, wine and a coffee bar. As you walked in, you were greeted by our board members and given a swag bag from Ethan Allen and ASID filled with great items from our IP’s.

The Expo started off with a CEU presentation by Kimberly Seldon, who spoke about her Business of Design, and the steps to running a successful interior design business. She was very entertaining, and her knowledge about this business is outstanding. Our keynote speaker, international designer Fernando Diaz (ASID), spoke to us about how he came in to the industry and his experiences.

The Expo exhibitor’s tables were wonderful, and there were some great companies there including Cambria, Dunn-Edwards, Rohl, Style Glass Enclosures, Ethan Allen, Lutron, Brizo and many others. The vendors came with great displays and new product lines and innovations. It was all about networking and meeting the IP’s. There were door prizes and raffles throughout the day. Each IP answered your questions and made sure you left their table with information to take back with you.

It was a great turn out and excellent Expo!

Wine & Design

By Alicia Ho, Allied ASID Wine & Design Chair “Wine flies when you are having fun” and at 2016 Wine & Design event at SoCo, the wine was flowing and the designs were grand! This amazing progressive wine tasting and design vignette showcase is where designer were given the challenge to create a design space that was inspired by a wine song. The event was covered by our exclusive media partner Modern Luxury/ Interiors California magazine.

Then we headed to Calligaris OC where designers Farrah Smith and Bontia McCarthy created a beautiful intimate dining setting where lovers could stare in each others eyes over wine. Then we headed to Roche Bobois where designer Kellie Davis created a warm heartfelt living room in honor of the left behind love ones of fallen soldiers. Then we headed over to a shag-a-delic design at HD Buttercup where Kasey Sterling had fur drape sofas ready for a romantic night. Over at DWR Elisabeth Soto D’Angelo took us on a 60's flash back to her living area design with psychedelic accessories and Bee Gees over head display. Two new designers Brandi Shea and Megan Pulfer teamed up at Stark and gave us a sweet romantic Southern Bohemia sitting area.

One Room 12 Ways

By Miko Krisvoy One Room 12 Ways Chair One Room 12 Ways has had five talented designers so far astonish us with their diverse showcase designs beyond the Red Door at Stonemill Design Center. Each month these designers never cease to amaze us with their transformation of a plain 1000 square room into a stunning interior design environment.

This event is a collaboration of the ASID OC Chapter, Stonemill Design Center and Modern Luxury/Interiors California magazine. The concept was to showcase ASID OC interior designers and Stonemill showrooms' merchandise. Modern Luxury/Interiors California magazine allowed the designers and Stonemill the opportunity to market themselves to the public. Three designers' rooms are featured in each quarterly issue of Modern Luxury/Interiors California magazine. At the end of this 12-month event, one lucky designer will receive a fullpage ad in the magazine when the public selects a winner through social media.

The first designer was Angela Eason, with her “SoCal Urban Living ”, a concept of clean lines and comfortable living. Angela treated us all to her homemade gumbo and entertained us with a trio of jazz musicians. Next was Adriel Cogdal, with the “Painter’s Studio”; colorful blocks of primary colors on the walls and a red floor. She treated us with some of her own culinary fare. The third designer was Karina Rizzo, who created a "New York Loft", with Clayton Home showroom hosting the opening/ reveal party.

The May designer team, Lucia Henry and Lisa Volkov, created “The Surfers Loft", with the opening party held at Creative Window Designs’ showroom. In June, designer Joanna Barker's concept was “Lake Front Vacation Home Conservatory/ Summer Room”, and the room featured a mountain and lake view mural and Teka/Artistry Hardwood flooring. Teka generously hosted this party.

The next few months will reveal more designers' incredibly imaginative interior design concepts.

Watch for the Chapters' monthly At A Glance e-blasts, the Chapter's Face Book posts and the ASID OC Chapter's website for the next upcoming One Room 12 Ways opening/reveal parties. Join us at the parties, visit the Stonemill Design Center and look for the Modern Luxury/Interiors California magazine featuring these interior designers.

Many thanks for the support by Cathy DeFazio, Stonemill's leasing office manager, and Andrew Stoermer with Modern Luxury/Interiors California magazine, as well as their photographer, Nick Shettarly.

A Beautiful Night for a Fundraiser

By Leora Cane, Chairperson, Chairs for Charity 2016 ASID OC Chapter held its’ annual charity event on May 10, 2016, at the Orange County Museum of Art in Newport Beach. Over 120 guests attended this cocktail reception to bid on 12 custom designed chairs. The featured ASID designers included Chanel Caspary, Katie Hammond, Charlene Chan (representing IDI); Nazgol Seyedi; Joyce Byrd Shiota and Eloise Lowry; Gigi Harris; Jan Turcotte; Valerie Saunders; Michele Prata; Adriel Cogdal; Julia Caro; Leora Cane and Anita Jacobi; Christy Arakaki; and Raad Ghantous.

Over 120 guests enjoyed a beautiful spring evening by sampling gourmet bites from California Fresh Catering, tasting artisanal truffles from CHOCXO and drinking delicious wine pored by the Wine Exchange.

The outdoor space came to life with the generous donations of Lounge Appeal and Little Hill Floral Designs.

The Chairs for Charity committee – Anita Jacobi, Leora Cane , Raad Ghantous, Jan Turcotte, Shannon Ratcliffe and Patricia Bryson worked tirelessly for almost 7 months to execute the successful event. After the entertaining live auction came to an end, the event raised almost $40,000!

Welcome to our new Chapter Administrator I am Lola Lambly, your new Chapter Administrator for the ASID OC Chapter. I am so excited to work with such a great group of people. I am looking forward to a long and productive relationship.

I have been in Orange County for five years now and love it. Prior to living in Orange County, I lived in Palm Desert for 15 years and had the good fortune to work in an occupation similar to ASID, an organization committed to advancing and promoting their membership. I am a California native and have been privileged to live in several of her diverse climates, including: the valleys, the mountains (Lake Arrowhead and Lake Tahoe), the desert, and now the beach area. Each one has its’ own special beauty. In each area that I’ve lived, I’ve pursued activities relating to that climate. I have climbed Mt. Whitney, backpacked the Sierras, water skied competitively, worked as a snow ski race coach and ski instructor. My free time now is throwing pots. I use the potter’s wheel to create functional ceramics, such as mugs, bowls, plates and vases. It actually has become a bit of an obsession, and I go to the studio as often as possible, evenings, weekends, even before work!

The absolute best though, was raising my two remarkable children and watch them become responsible, contributing adults. Lots of wonderful memories of their childhood and adolescence, and now I get to watch the next generation go through the wonder of childhood with my first grandson.

May Lunch & Learn Latest Innovations in Kitchen Design

By Cynthia Prizant Our May Lunch & Learn was held in the beautifully modern and spacious Leicht showroom in Irvine. Leicht USA CEO, Shimon Garibi, provided a wonderful walkthrough of the many high-tech vignettes, which showcase the innovative features, functions and materials that are available to create the ultimate kitchen. Designers were wowed by the unique surface materials and all of the bells and whistles and that were incorporated into the cabinetry to streamline the day-to-day functions that are necessary in a modern kitchen.

An array of gourmet sandwiches and salad were offered to guests as they perused the showroom and had a chance to ask questions and mingle.

Our next event will be at the Lighting Gallery in Laguna Hills. Stay tuned for upcoming details!

April General Meeting

By Lauri Howell, Allied ASID, 2015-2016 Programs Chair We kicked off our April General Meeting at Ferguson Kitchen, Bath and Lighting Gallery in Irvine, and were treated to a one-of-a-kind tour featuring all of the new technology and products that the industry has to offer. From refrigerators with beautiful black interiors to ovens that can determine when your dish is cooked, it was a great learning experience full of functional and inspiring showroom displays.

Our hostess for the evening was Erica Lynn, Ferguson’s Showroom Manager, who treated us to a wonderful spread of home cooking from Jay’s Catering. From their vegetarian dishes to their beautifully prepared chicken, it was a feast that felt like home. In addition to the delicious food, Erica also had both Newport Brass, and Kichler representatives on hand to educate us on new products, and answer any questions attendees may have had.

ASID President Jamie Namanny started the evening’s presentation with highlights of upcoming events, including Chairs for Charity and our Wine and Design event at SoCo. Following her, ASID President Elect Adriel Cogdal spoke about our upcoming Expo, and Ferguson Showroom Manager Erica Lynn presented a few fun facts about working with Ferguson that we may have not know before.

Jenn-Air Market Managers Jake Meyers and Jordan Clevenger presented our CEU, providing strategies for designing a kitchen that can provide function for a range of generations in one space. Through this presentation, we learned what each generation may need in order to function efficiently in the kitchen, as well as how to accommodate the needs of everyone from Baby Boomers to Millennials.

Once again, following the end of the presentation, we invited those Industry Partners in attendance to introduce themselves to the audience, and briefly highlight their company.

This interaction between our Industry Partners and Members has created the opportunity for additional networking and sourcing that has proven to be a great success for everyone.

For our raffle, Ferguson raffled off two wonderful prizes from the evenings sponsors. Newport Brass donated a lovely kitchen faucet, and Kichler donated a $200 gift certificate for Kichler lighting products through Ferguson Bath Kitchen & Lighting Gallery.

A big thank you to Derek Fisher, of FiberSeal, who managed the A/V for this presentation, as well as our photographer for this event, Paul Fernandez of Paul Fernandez Interior Design.

Design Awards

By Farrah Smith, Design Awards Chair ASID OC is pleased to have our valued industry partner, Daltile, as the sponsor of the 2016 Design Awards.

In the 1940s, the founders of Dallas Ceramic Company had a vision for a tile distribution channel unlike any other in the industry. Today, Daltile has grown from a humble manufacturing center in Dallas, Texas, to a nationwide resource that is renowned for its’ customer service.

What makes Daltile different is that their Sales Service Centers, located across the nation, are built with the needs of the local customer in mind. From the beginning, the idea was to make sure that contractors and builders had a resource that offered them the products and services they needed, when they needed them, on a local level.

WE CARRY ALL LINES OF FLOORING.

Over the years, Daltile has expanded on the concept of the Sales Service Center, with the creation of the Stone Showroom and Slab Yard, and again with the Gallery Selection Center. These destinations provide support for local designers as they assist their clients in selecting tile and stone.

Once again, Orange Coast Magazine is the Exclusive Media Sponsor for the 2016 Design Awards.

Saddleback College Student Wins National SketchUp 3D Basecamp Student Competition

By Farida Gabdrakhmanova, Interior Design Instructor at Saddleback College Kristin Till, a interior design student at Saddleback College, was chosen as one of the five grand prize winners in the national SketchUp 3D Basecamp Student Competition. This contest was open to students currently enrolled in a higher education degree (or certificate) program from an accredited institution within the U.S.A. or Canada (any major). Students were asked to submit their works created by using SketchUp modeling software. The judging was based on the following criteria: Compelling Design, Modeling Skill, Creativity, Overall Aesthetic, and Alignment to Curriculum.

to create unique elements in the space, particularly the aforementioned ceiling treatment which I designed to mimic ocean waves. Using 3D Warehouse, I could pool resources from other SketchUp users incorporating iconic furniture with ease. SketchUp enabled me to bring my presentation to “life” through the addition of real materials, accessories, lighting, custom furniture, and greenery. Such additions enhanced my design ideas and made it possible to easily convey the reality of the space to my audience."

Kristin submitted her Coffee Shop Design project created in her ID-216 Digital Visualization class in Spring 2015. Her award prize includes a roundtrip airfare and transportation to the 3D Basecamp site in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, a free admission to 3D Basecamp, and lodging at the event (June 13th - 15th). Approximate value of the prize is $2,000.

Kristin Till’s concept and submission write up: "My submission for the SketchUp 3D Basecamp Student Competition is the final project I completed for an interior design class, ID 216 Digital Visualization, at Saddleback College, titled “Black Tide Coffee Roasters”. The assignment was designed to give students an exercise in the planning and execution of a complete design solution and presentation of a specific space. The project required developing a design concept, 3D-modeling, selection and application of materials, and composition to create a digital presentation board using SketchUp and Photoshop. I chose to develop the coffee shop space, which was designated by my instructor as a cafe for university students in a location of my choosing.

Finding inspiration from coastal California, I chose to design a coffee shop in a college community near Santa Barbara. My goal with Black Tide was to create a fun and comfortable space designed for college students needing a place to study and socialize with their peers. Inspired by the ocean that is just steps away, I wanted to incorporate calming colors and natural materials with unique design elements, such as a ceiling treatment formed to resemble ocean waves. Using SketchUp, I was able to design a space in which users can escape the classroom and cultivate inspiration without being too distracted. SketchUp allowed me to explore, develop and execute my design objectives. Throughout the design process, I was able to experiment with different forms and shapes

Student Designers Make An Impact at ASID OC’s Annual Wine & Design Event

By Kellie Davis, Student Representative the Board Interior Design students are, and have always been, the blood flow of the interior design body and the heart beat of ASID. They are the forward thinking, innovators, do-ers and next generation movers of the design industry. We honor, respect, encourage, support, and give them credit.

As an organization, ASID consistently and vigorously encourages this next generation of thinkers and do-ers -- designers of comfortable, thoughtful, interactive, beautiful, safe, and unique spaces -- to actively participate in events and activities that are designed to connect them with a family of design professionals and vendors, as well as provide ladders that can ultimately be a support system, and a lifeline for their future success.

Thus, a heartfelt congratulations from ASID OC goes out to Brandi Shae and Megan Pulfer from IDI, whose design in the Stark showroom won The People’s Choice vote at ASID Orange County’s Annual Wine & Design Event on June 15th at SoCo Collection.

Brandi’s and Megan’s inspiration was drawn from the country song “Strawberry Wine” by Deana Carter, a sweet song about first love on a young girl’s grandpa’s farm. One can clearly see the inspiration and intent in their vignette, from the chosen colors to the romantic feeling and sweetness of the casual, comfortable, country-shabby chic arrangement.

ASID OC’s Student Representative to the Board, Kellie Davis from Saddleback College also designed a vignette in the Roche Bobois Showroom.

Her given song was Red, Red Wine by UB40 (originally by Neil Diamond), a lyric that mourns the loss of a loved one and trying to forget the pain, dedicated to our fallen soldiers (and a last minute tribute to the Orlando tragedy as seen with the rainbow colored Mahjong cushions). See how happy I am!
