“Work is love made visible.” Khalil Gibran
That is how we feel here at Lila B. Design. Each and every time we green urban spaces and adorn life’s celebrations with blooms, we articulate our love.
And in celebration of this season of love we, and a talented team of artists, created this Valentine. Not only was the project super fun, it offers up a sneak preview of our recent styling project with Holly Stewart Photography. It is true, we have been waiting for a reason to spread the news (and the love!) about our new collaboration.
And finally, Lila B. Design would like to thank each of you dearly for allowing us to create and share our passion–work is truly love made visible!

Come out February 3rd-February 5th to Design San Francisco, an event with speakers, discussions, and showrooms waiting to invigorate and inspire the design-inclined. Bonus: Visit Murray’s Iron Works and you can admire how some crafty Lila B. Design arrangements partner with custom furniture designs!
We were given the liberty to enliven the old world elegance of Murray’s Iron Works (known for producing some of the finest custom-made iron furniture and lighting available anywhere in the world) with succulent landscapes and select local blooms. Join us there at 3pm on Thursday to learn about custom furniture design from Gil Mendez, an accomplished designer with Murray’s Iron Works that we love. Mendez will lead a lively discussion tracing the design process from conceptual sketch to fabrication drawing from many years of experience.
Let the blacksmithing begin!

If you were to wander to the side of Stable Cafe, just past a shipping container topped with a garden grown by yours truly, you will find Saison. Saison (French for season) is a reservations-only restaurant that opens its doors on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday
evenings to serve the locally sourced menu of Executive Chef Joshua Skenes with the discerning and cultivated wine pairings of Sommelier Mark Bright. The feel is secret supper club meets informed elegance. The experience is one of both intimacy and invitation: the tables are small and candle-lit while the kitchen is open and guests can be a part of the culinary magic with wine in hand.
