VanAlentine's Day Brunch and Design Speed Dating

On Saturday February 12th, we celebrated VanAlentine's Day, our first open house brunch in 2011. The event  featured Van Alen's popular Design Speed Dating series of round-robin portfolio reviews, including guest critics James Biber, Susannah Drake, Lars Müller, and Frederieke Taylor. And congratulations to this round's four emerging designers for their exceptional work: Thomas Carruthers, Mustafa Faruki, Priyanka Shah, and Ife Vanable. Thanks to everyone who shared the love!
