Fascinating ‘Tablescapes’ |
|
By Sarah Baviera
SIX design masters were given a
tough task to stretch their artistry further and turn ordinary
tables into masterpieces: a bag designer, a veteran couturier, a
landscape artist, a gallery owner, an accountant turned fashion
brand owner and an interior designer. All six squeezed their
creative juices and came up with fabulous table setups in an exhibit
organized by Swan Catering billed as “Tablescapes ala cARTe.”
The natural beauty of wood, the
glimmer of glass and the strength of iron are the elemental
characteristics of interior designer Eric Paras’ Tablescapes
design. Paras proved that combining all elements can result to
overwhelming splendor. He got inspiration from kamagong cutlery and
crockery woodworks, glass candle holders, wine buckets and cast iron
statues on weathered wood base.
