Kettners London...The art of reinvention


The Champagne Room

Hello again my blogger friends!!!! I took a little time off to soul search and job search. The new year has already proven to be a great beginning for me. I finally found a great job... I will be an Event Designer for an upscale floral design and events company in NYC. I start next week and I'm very excited about this wonderful opportunity. I will try to post at least three times a week from here on in. In addition to blogging about interior design, I will also have to blog about my adventures in event planning. Thanks to all my sweet blogger friends for hangin in there...I truly appreciate it and I've missed you so much!

My first post is about this fabulous hot spot located in what was the French Quarter of London’s Soho, housed in four Georgian houses running up to five floors and accommodating spaces such as, lounge nooks, pudding bar, champagne bar, brasserie & private living. Kettners was founded in 1867 by Napoleon III former chef, August Kettner and has been the gem of many centuries. Recently refurbished and full of old world charm...these spaces, the furnishing and the ornament make me swoon....Enjoy!
