Rado Teams up with NYCxDESIGN and WantedDesign to Award Designer Elisia Langdon

written by Yanique Bourjolly

Swiss watchmaker Rado teamed up with NYCxDESIGN and WantedDesign for a second year. On Friday, 19th they held a private opening party at Gallery 9 at the Terminal Stores to announce designer and recent Pratt Institute graduate, Elisia Langdon as the winner of 2017 Rado Star Prize U.S. for her work titled “Kera.” “Kera” is a modular storage system with an environmentally-conscious design that impressed a jury of top influencers from the design industry who narrowed down the entries to ten finalists. Langdon’s work resonated with the theme of the competition: “Design is our DNA: Items for Everyday Life” by blending the benefits of a sound-absorbing wall to improve both working and domestic environments with the practicality of a storage system made from biodegradable wool which can be used multiple spaces.

Langdon states, “When I worked for the Center of Sustainability, I was researching the material of wool and all the incredible properties it has and I wanted to make that available to a larger market.” Wool is known to improve air quality by removing chemically binding organic compounds such as formaldehyde, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide for the atmosphere. “The pioneering spirit of Rado in research and use of materials is a fundamental part of our brand DNA,” comments Rado CEO Matthias Breschan. “We were delighted to see how Elisia captured this spirit in her project, which uses a traditional material, wool, to meet the modern challenge of creating optimal living and working spaces.”

That night, Langdon was presented with the Rado True Open Heart – itself a recipient of two design awards – and $5,000 in prize money. Her work, along with the designs of the other finalists, will be on display until May 23 at WantedDesign Manhattan at the Terminal Stores.

written by Yanique Bourjolly

This Thursday Rémy Martin along with Chef Marc Forgione celebrated National Cognac Day and congratulated ‘Circle Of Centaurs’ winner Jermaine Wright at his restaurant in Tribeca. The ‘Circle of Centaurs’ is an initiative Rémy has created that allows influential people in various industries to act as mentors to selected participants to help them to pursue their creative passion.

Marc started off the night with an opening toast:

I wanted to say thank you so much Rémy Martin for coming; thank you so much for the DJ that’s spinning and thank you so much to Jermaine- just so you know there were thousands of people that put in their dishes. We whittled that down to about 20 and then that got whittled down to about 10. We actually tasted the 10 and Jermaine’s was the one that beat them all so from Rémy, from myself- this is yours from the help of everyone around we are going to finish this tonight. Congratulations, thank you everybody and have fun tonight, cheers!

Also in attendance were multiple celebrity guests including Empire star Joseph Sikora, British artist Shantell Martin, Australian Supermodel Shanina Shaik, Fashion Designer Carlos Campos, Singer Eyme Santos, and DJ’s Vashtie Kola and Kitty Cash.

In celebration with National Cognac Day traditional Rémy Martin sidecar cocktails were served such as Dusk To Dawn (available at Employees Only in NYC), #ThatsWhatILike (available at the Bassment in Chicago), and The Outfit (available at Bar Clacson in Los Angeles). Marc Forgione served fan favorite menu items such as the burger, steak on toast, chili lobster skewers, hiramsa spoons, and Jermaine Wright served his award winning jerked stewed pork recipe. It was not a night to be missed.
