Hi, I'm an Interior Designer and will be showing a Dining Room setting at the Architectural Digest Show opening 3/17-3/21. This show is seen by thousands of attendees and willbe covered by several Art and Design media outlets. Money raised by this event goes directly to the DIFFA organization in the fight to prevent AIDS and to research. It would be amazing to have some of Ferry Staverman's work included in my Dining Room. Please let me know as soon as possible if some arrangement can be made. Thanks, Jeffrey Brooks-Allied Member ASID
