Chris Werner Design

Another collaboration with the incredible folks at American Christmas, 4Wall Entertainment, and AMA Electric Sign Company!

Unwrapping Cartier's NYC Holiday Magic w/ Chris Werner Design Each holiday season, Cartier's Fifth Avenue Mansion in New York City becomes a festive landmark. The team at Chris Werner Design helped transform the space.

🎉 On Halloween, Meow Wolf opened their 5th permanent exhibition in Houston's historic - Radio Tave. We are incredibly proud to have played a small part in bringing this remarkable experience to life!

Stepping into Radio Tave, you’ll find over 25,000 square feet of awe-inspiring worlds, interactive art, otherworldly soundscapes, and layered storytelling – each corner filled with unexpected discoveries and immersive details. We’re honored to have contributed to the lighting design, helping bring the creative team's extraordinary vision to life.

To all of our incredible collaborators: a heartfelt congratulations! We are so grateful to work alongside such talented, visionary partners. Enjoy a well-deserved rest!

Soooo many talented folks to thank for their vision, kindness, and trust.
