The City of Lights in Blacks and Whites was created for 2009 IFDA Tableau to benefit Ryan House. Each chair was covered in a quilted top with an iconic building in Paris while the tableskirt reflects the skyline of this magical city. A lighted Tower was the centerpiece with its silhouette reflected on the tabletop. It was meant to give the feeling of walking through the city at dusk. Photo credit: Scott Sandler Photography
