The ultimate urban locale is a loft. It’s is essentially a carte blanche. The minute I knew we were designing something with an urban flavor is the minute I knew we had to do it at The Nuage Studio. The Nuage Studio is 6,000 square feet of bare open walls, high ceilings and smoky gray elements – perfect to ground the pretty and girly elements we wanted to play with. All of this in MIAMI. Smile. While touring the space we fell in love with their tall, stark white crocodile-textured royal table and high back sofas. So lovely, I’d wear them if I could. We paired the table with Nuage’s Kartell inspired bar stools because (a) they are sleek and (b) they “lit-e-rally” (in Rachel Zoe’s cadence) allow you to absorb the open space, a feeling we definitely wanted to invoke. My favorite element on the urban side of our Urban Prettiness Shoot is the natural cracks in the concrete floor. Something haunting about them, something beautiful about them, something real. Ambrosio photography captured it beautifully.
