Excited to share our creations for the Porter Flea Summer Market held earlier this month at Track One! It all started with some really great graphics that Courtney Spencer made. We took the heavy summer vibes, that amazing milky green, and the vibrant pink and had our way with it.
While we played with shape and form for the 2014 Holiday Market decor, this time, we had our way with texture. For the 15' x 15' entry installation, we made oversized three-dimensional summer essentials - watermelons, cocktails, and lawn flamingos - in a monochromatic matte green floating at both different heights and depths in front of a shiny faceted pink foil backdrop. It's hard to fully capture all that was going on in photos - not only the scale but the depth and texture and shadows and light. Seriously...that green. So good. And that backdrop...almost like shattered glass. Obsessed. (Can we say that about our own work?) In front of it all was a ginormous hand-cut backlit "Treat Yo Self" sign, because that's what one is to do at Porter Flea after all.

Here we are - Mandy and Emily - with our entry installation...for scale. :)
We adorned the doorway into the market area with a tropical garland. Again, we combined the milky matte green with the shiny pink foil.
The photo booth...maybe one of our favorite compositions for the market with large, handmade tropical leaves and oversized props. That milky green paired so, so well with the shiny silver foil for the photos.

We also made a lot of other small details throughout the space -- including a little display for the Porter Flea merchandise.

We made a series of the three-dimensional cocktails with hand-cut letters to welcome folks to the Porter Parlour part of the market, which was sponsored by Local Honey.
It is always such a pleasure to get to work with the Porter Flea team, and we can't wait to do it again!
We'll leave you with another photo of us...this time enjoying the Smilebooth.
