Last month, we joined A+R, Los Angeles’ design haven, as they ushered in the New Year. Guests were treated to a compelling conversation between design icon Frances Anderton and author India Mandelkern, whose new book is focused on the city's fascinating relationship with light.
Lighting powerhouse Louis Poulsen also unveiled a unique lamp created specifically for the occasion and photographer Tom Wayne Bertolotti's work graced the walls and interactive displays.I've been on a mocktail kick prioritizing my holistic wellness and I love that Aplós makes it easy to engage in the social activities around having a beverage, while still supporting your wellbeing. The Mellow Margarita hit different in the desert heat!
Artists, musicians, designers, and creatives mingled over the Aplós Mellow Margarita cocktail, a citrusy floral blend crafted with Calme, and the Aplós & Grapefruit, a bright and refreshing mix featuring Arise.
