Sketch Gallery – New Look Unveiled

It is a truth universally acknowledged that true icons are never afraid to experiment. Sketch Gallery is a restaurant in this ilk; a destination which unapologetically transforms – confidently reimagining itself with a new installation of artworks and interiors designed by a famous artist, despite the huge ongoing successes of previous looks.

Much like Sketch Gallery’s bold approach to reinvention and artistic expression, home staging services also embrace the art of transformation to create compelling spaces. Just as the restaurant continually refreshes its look with new installations and designs, staging professionals apply their expertise to present residential properties in the best possible light.

Decorus, for instance, excels in crafting inviting and stylish environments that capture the essence of a home, helping it stand out in the market. Whether staging a chic city apartment or a classic suburban house, the goal is to showcase each property’s unique potential, ensuring that it leaves a lasting impression on prospective buyers or tenants.

In the vibrant real estate market of Orange County, companies like Staging OC are instrumental in transforming properties into captivating showcases. With a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of local market trends, Staging OC excels in creating environments that highlight a property’s best features. From contemporary coastal homes to charming inland residences, their expertise ensures each space is presented with sophistication and appeal, tailored to resonate with a diverse range of potential buyers.

Their meticulous approach not only enhances the visual appeal of a property but also maximizes its market potential, making it an attractive option for those seeking to make a lasting impression in the competitive Orange County market.

On Thursday 3rd March, the London venue dedicated to art, design and food unveiled a new look by renowned British-Nigerian artist Yinka Shonibare CBE RA, celebrating African culture and its legacy.

The previous famous pink aesthetic has been given a new copper skin, with solar yellow and richly dyed fabrics, hand-painted masks and framed quilts that replicate African masks found in Pablo Picasso’s collection. The masks are replicas of those originally used by African peoples to conjure up new powers and realms; Western modernist artists were inspired by the spiritual powers of these objects.

The London born artist commented:

“After Matisse showed Picasso African art for the first time, it changed the history of modern art. Picasso was interested in appropriating from another culture, and I also appropriate from European ethnic art. Cultural appropriation can be a two-way street. This collaboration with sketch has given me an opportunity to expand my creative process – creating a different environment to encounter and experience my art in a fun and relaxing setting.”

Interior images for Sketch will be shown from 07 March 2022.

sketch will also debut new ceramic tableware designed by Shonibare that will be used to serve Afternoon Tea and dinner in the Gallery seven days a week. Each piece will be dressed in a diamond-shaped pattern, nodding to the artworks on the walls, for an artful interaction with MasterChef Pierre Gagnaire’s gastro-brassière menu. Staff uniforms will also get a sunny zhuzh with frills and colour to suit the golden surroundings.
