OUR STORY
What's
in a name?
We are driven to deliver visually stunning, efficient, world-class events
Not a catalogue based hire company.. not stylists tweaking cutlery.. not dusting off James Bond silhouettes.. Season was born to redesign the elements that shape contemporary corporate event spaces.
​
These design ideas are formed from our years of industry experience combined with a fresh eye on what today's corporate events need.
​
We started from scratch to deeply consider what makes a striking entrance, an on-brand photo backdrop, stage decor that takes light beautifully, a smart chandelier, authentic table decor, robust furnishings that truly suit a venue....
The Season team are architects of the event space; building a specific look and feel that enhances the venue, personifies the client and honours the occasion at hand.
​
Creating concepts with both a high-end finish and a strong sustainable focus is at our heart, and aligns beautifully with the brand values of our clients.
​
We settled on the name 'Season' to cover four core areas of our work - scroll on for more details.
