and captivating space with her uplifting circus concept . Exotic drapes , hand painted motifs and sumptuous velvet will work to elevate the space , meanwhile lighting will envelope the area in a warming glow , making it the perfect space to reconnect with others . Sara comments “ Following the ups and downs of the past 18 months , when it came to developing the concept for this year ’ s Decorex bar I wanted to do two things , create a space for our industry members to reunite and secondly to do something fun . Our goal was to create a bar with whimsy at heart and a touch of mystery .” Online attendees to Decorex Virtual in November will also have the opportunity to explore Sara Cogrove ’ s design in a 3D walkthrough .
