Past Gatherings
In mid-May we hosted a super fun and inspiring two day exploration of NYCxDesign. Our Field Trip took us to the new fair, SHELTER by Afternoon Light in Chelsea which had a great vibe and wonderful presentations from USM, Matter Made, Available Items, Sample House and many more. Day two included a walk through of the ICFF and Wanted with a special welcome from fair director, Claire Pijoulat-followed by lunch and a private tour of The Future Perfect Townhouse in the West Village.
We offered a rare chance to inhabit one of the Hudson Valley’s true modernist gems—Philip Johnson’s Wolfhouse—for an intimate day of architecture, design and great conversation.
This was a unique opportunity to explore this home and grounds with a small group of fellow creatives. We had experts on hand to illuminate our visit and yummy snacks to sustain us. Plus an optional architect inspired lunch.
In late March, 2025, Alessandro Ronfini of Demo Architects —showed us around the unique passive home he built for himself and his family, while also sharing his professional journey from Italy to Olive. We gathered for an intimate lunch, inspired by the architect's favorite sandwich, as we discuss building a creative career in the Hudson Valley. Some of the group stayed on for a nature stroll through Alessandro’s property.
