David Stark is one of New York’s most creative and
sought-after event designers. This book explores forty of
Stark’s elaborate yet eco-friendly events—corporate,
non-profit, and private—with 200 exquisite photographs and
descriptive text. Organized according to the designer’s
quirky phraseology—“Animate the Inanimate” “Don't Take It So
Seriously . . . At the End of the Day, It's a Party” “From
Many Little Things Make One Big Thing” "It's Not What You
Use, But How You Use It" and "Make Packaging the Prize"—this
book is unique in both its presentation and its content.
Stark considers his events “art installations” and when
guests enter his spaces, that is exactly how they
feel—surrounded by the kind of creative input and passion
that can only be described as art. Clients include Condé Nast Publications, Cooper Hewitt
National Design Museum, Hearst Corporation, Michael Graves,
Michael J. Fox Foundation, Minneapolis Institute of the
Arts, Museum of Arts and Design, Rachael Ray, Tory Burch,
Saks Fifth Avenue, Sephora, Sundance Institute, and Target.
