Product Designer, Marna Lea Varney of Varney Contracting & Design along with her husband, Frederick Varney, are launching two, made to order, linen lines. As the Varney's own and adore two fine steeds of their own they were easily inspired with a subtle influence of equestrian flair. The colorful Safari theme lights up any room it graces and the second line, Royal Ascot is perfectly suited for a gentlemen's luncheon. Both lines have been created using customized & luxurious fabric innovations, that can be accompanied by complimenting dishware, flatware, stemware and accessories imported from France for an inviting and visually compelling setting for eventeurs, models, moguls, dilettantes and horse loving celebs who like to take in multifaceted and exhilarating surrroundings…
The Varney's have a very personalized partnership with their home team that they work very closely with hence the turn around time for these customized ensembles can be completed in as little as 4-6 weeks. Further what ensues is total commitment to client service and satisfaction.
She and her husband Frederick have worked with and have been influenced by noted designers such as Jamie Drake and Lars Bollander. Marna Lea Varney designs various living spaces for clients on Long Island and in Manhattan. She worked with noted shoe designer, Anthony Marinelli of A. Marinelli Shoes and Accessories for twelve years. She has been retained to create show case displays in high end retail stores such as Michael C. Fina and Bertolucci. In addition she designed, launched, and distributed Spray Ban (TM) by Via Opus and previously sold nationwide.
In addition, Fred and his wife Marna buy, renovate, and sell casually elegant turn key properties in choice locations, often as desirable second homes.
At every great event, there is ONE thing that sets the tone apart from all others, aside from ALL else, something that defines the event, sets the stage and creates a mood… and that is…Event or Special Occasion Décor and Design. Event styling is far beyond the ordinary, resonates a message, and it's unusually dramatic application utterly transforms the space that they grace with unique visual perspectives, lush palettes, luxe materials and unreservedly haute designs that amaze and inspire. Basically these tables of art are in short a little theatrical production among the likes of a festive Hollywood world premier event. It is the glamour that transforms a setting with style and evokes an anticipation of what is to come…From simple in design and decoration to complex and intricate with a mixture and balance of richness and simplicity. The allure of a well-dressed and luxurious table is timeless with an inherent generosity and promise of good things to come. Modern minimalist, luxurious eclecticism, eclectic balance of the old and the new, with diverse interesting and beautiful objects all infuse a distinct table personality. And, there are as many ways to design a table as your imagination will allow. "It's sort of an unspoken competition of whose table is getting the most buzz" said Christopher Robbins, the Classic's caterer for 20 years The Varney's attend numerous national trade and industry shows as well as home decor exhibits on a regular basis. They are also inspired by their travels to the French West Indies, and Europe.
Michael C. Fina - Fifth Avenue Store displays over 200 brand names, featuring the world's most respected tabletop manufacturers and kitchenware designers and also have one of the largest selections of estate and antique silverware in New York City.
