David Patrick reported, DIFFA: Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS, launched its 2008 dining by Design National Tour at Skylight on 275 Hudson Street in NYC. This is the 11th National Tour of Dining by Design. Conde’ Nast Media Group has joined the 2008 tour as national media partner. DIFFA brought together a talented and intriguing cast of designers, artists and personalities to put a spotlight on stylish and outlandish trends in design. Following New York, Dining by Design will tour seven cities nationwide including Kansas City, Los Angeles, Dallas, Atlanta, San Francisco, Chicago, and Boston. Apparently, the designers were not impressed with décor and presentation. The dinner party had all the makings of frump, if not for the company at hand. I am sure it was a wonderful dinner party, however, Conde' Nast has a reputation of being associated with only the best design presentations. The dinner party looks as if it were put together by a child. It certainly doesn’t appear that the designers and artists sitting around that table were pleased. Although, a dinner party is about connecting with friends through good conversation, good food, good wine and good humor, the culinary experience has a visual and esthetic aspect which artists have particular sensitivity. Not to worry, they will get over it; maybe the dinner parties in Chicago or San Francisco will meet their standards, and possibly warrant a picture in a Conde’ Nast publication.
