Little Rock: Where High Fashion Meets Office Furniture

Kimball Office and its dealer, Today’s Office Inc., in Little Rock, Arkansas, participated in the ASID “Wine & Design” event.  This exciting, fashion-forward event benefited the Our House of Little Rock charity, which equips homeless men, women, and children with the tools and resources to be successful on their own.

The event’s highlight was a runway show, called Project Runway, with professional models donning outfits and accessories made from materials created by design firms, dealers, and manufacturers.

“The Kimball Office/Today’s Office team had a great time developing our design, executing, and living the life of the runway models!!  What a blast!  Our booth display featured Villa lounge seating and received great feedback for both comfort and style,” says Mick Ann Koratsky, Market Sales Manager, Kimball Office.

Eight teams participated in this first ever runway event in Little Rock.  The design team from Today’s Office included Amy Bingman, Melissa Dixon and Paige Parish.

“Each team was assigned a color (ours was Silver Cloud) and a hard material and soft material sponsor to partner with,” says Mick Ann. “Since I was partnering with my local dealer, Kimball Office was the soft manufacturer. You could see the addition of floor tile and cove base to many of the outfits as the hard material.

Kimball fabrics used were: Woodland 10701 Granite; Crossroads 10305 Silvatica; and Flicker 11132 Magenta.
