by Greg Martin on October 29, 2009

JDRF is set to benefit from an art exhibition, high in the sky on the 52nd floor.

The luxury residential tower Millennium Tower in San Francisco will present a designer showcase entitled Icons of Design, featuring more than 25 of the Bay Area’s most prestigious designers. The designers’ work will be showcased throughout the four Grand Residences (usually not open to the general public) that occupy the building’s entire 52nd floor. “We’re thrilled to host this design exhibit and extremely appreciative of the dedicated efforts of event chair Ken Paige in bringing together this talented group of designers and organizing an event that will benefit several of our community’s important charities,” said Richard G. Baumert, managing director at Millennium Partners.

The featured designers will exhibit their own interpretations of urban living and design.  The list of featured designers includes:  Alexandra Owen Interior Design, Ann Brown Interiors, Ann Getty & Associates, Applegate Tran Interiors, ArtHaus, Black Mountain Construction/Development, Butler Armsden Architects, Chantal Lamberto Interior Design, Closets Van Go, De Sousa Hughes, Eden Wright Design, Henderson Design Group, Hendler Design, Hepworth & Howard, Jeff Ryan Interiors, Jurow Design Associates, Kensington & Associates, Martha Angus Inc., Martin-Richards, Michael Merrill Design Studios, Inc., Nancy Van Natta Associates, Orlando Diaz-Azcuy Design, Reba Jones, Scheiber Design Group, Shelby De Quesada Interior Design, Studio Becker, Sutro Architects, The Charles de Lisle Workshop and Wiseman & Gale.

Public tours began on October 24th and continue for five consecutive weekends through November 22. Tickets are $25 (cash only) and can be purchased in the Grand Residences Lobby at Millennium Tower (301 Mission Street at Fremont Street) with proceeds benefiting the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation on Saturday, October 31st, 11AM – 7PM and Sunday, November 1st, 11AM – 5PM. Complimentary valet parking will be provided. Note that the cost of the ticket can be considered a tax deductible donation to JDRF.
