Another great year for the annual Antiques & Garden Show of Nashville, and we were so pleased to contribute to the iconic event by leading the creative design once again.  This year’s theme, Cultivating Home: Life Well Tended, drew inspiration from the Cotswolds and lush, vine-like patterns that evoke a sense of natural beauty and timeless elegance. 🌱 These patterns became central to the brand design, weaving through all campaign elements from print to outdoor and all collateral at the event.   Check it all out here 👉
