Summer has officially begun. The Fendi Outdoor Summer Kick Off event at the Luxury Living Group showroom on June 24 celebrated an exclusive window installation of the Italian brand's furniture. Curated by interior designer Noelia Ibáñez of ByNOELIA, the artful installation on Madison Avenue included the latest pieces from Fendi Outdoor. The design, which is rooted in the idea of a summer escape, takes its inspiration from the ocean and white sand beaches, and is complemented by Novo Arts-provided artwork, translucent paneling by LUMMA, awning fabric from Dedar, and floral arrangements by Flowers by Special Arrangement.
