We attended a VIP reception this week at Signature Place, the architecturally striking new condo in downtown St. Petersburg. This was a chance for a couple of hundred people to view the furnished models, and check out the common areas, enjoying food stations scattered throughout.It started with flutes of champagne in the elevator.
When we went outside into the 6th floor Sky Garden, we were impressed at the staging here at the end. The artificial turf never needs mowing or watering and you won't be bothered by noisy lawnmowers. We thought it was nice to stage this picnic.
After the music started and we were enjoying samples from Mise en Place, we looked over and saw that the staging had even included models! The people hitting golf balls on the putting green were obviously guests at the reception, but these two sunbathers certainly looked like staging!
Signature Place will start closing on sales later this month.
Of course, you know I think it's ingenius... Using people as props is now a common place. Signature Place is a great project and addition to downtown St. Petersburg?
