However, the high art of party presentation to which even an entire field of study has been devoted is known to few these days. The Apollo room opened in 1808, which was lit up with thousands of candles and had ponds, caves, waterfalls, and romantic paths, the festive procession of Hans Makart at the end of the 19th century to mark the silver anniversary of the Austrian Imperial Couple, and the sumptuously organized artists' festivals of the Secession are only a few examples. To bring this creative tradition with a Viennese touch into the present is the vision of the work of the event design agency perfectprops and the impetus for this book. To create dream worlds and fictitious environments as spaces in which to make everyday life more bearable and to create emotions for a day or a night is both a task and a passion. But unlike set designs, decorations, or interior designs, these productions are always created only for a few hours and the actors are always the real people, the visitors, who perform in their own "costumes". These people, be they wedding guests, ball-goers, business people, party people, or children on their birthday wish, deserve to experience their own very special moment and remember it with pleasure for a long, long time. Accomplishing this goal involves discussing, conceptualizing, researching, viewing, creating, calculating, planning, presenting, producing, and organizing for weeks and months - all for a few hours in which reality and everyday life are transformed. A few of these snapshots are captured in this book." -- "Perfectprops Vienna: founded in 1987 as the first agency in Vienna for makeup, hair, and styling, perfectprops has also worked for about 15 years as an event design agency with the goal of conceptualizing and realizing perfect visual experiences. With the promise to make every job - weather for private or corporate clients - an individual masterpiece. A commitment to perfection - down to the very last detail." -- Contents: Foreword / Wolfgang Pauser; Bigger Than Life: Andreas Lackner / Ela Angerer; With Dedication to Detail: Roswitha Kladnig / Martin Walkner & M.Hötzeneder; Forgotten Establishments: A Viennese History; A Viennese Specialty: The Gschwandner / Erich Bernard & Andrea Hladky; Spectacle: Feast for the Senses; Transformation: Appeal of an Event Designer to a Guest; Where Have All the Flowers Gone: Full Bloom, Real or Fake; Bon Appetit: From Buffet to Table Setting; With Love: Business Dinner with Friends; Memories: The Most Beautiful Day; Love is Not Always Profitable: But It Enriches Us All the More; Partner: Decotime; Curiosity: As Creative Engine; Fashion: The World is a Catwalk; Facade Decor: The Ornamented Room; Details & Trivia: The Aura of Small Things; Maker of Worlds: Thomas Draschan; Faits Accomplis [interviews with: Norbert Kettner, CEO Vienna Tourist Board; Elisabeth Gürtler, Hotelier and General Director Spanish Riding School; Desirée Treichl-Stürgkh, Editor of Home, Flair, Organizer of the Vienna Opera Ball; Marianne Kohn, Manager of the Loos Bar in Vienna; Senator Gerhard Lenz, Businessman; Lucy Mc Evil, Singer and Actress; Elisabeth Himmer-Hirnigel, PR Agency Owner; Bernd Schlacher, Restaurateur; Gery Keszler, Chairman of AIDS LIFE, Organizer of the Vienna Life Ball; Christian Pöttler, CEO Echo Medienhaus; Isabella Klausnitzer, Journalist; Dr. Eva Dichand, Publisher Newspaper Heute]; Behind the Lense: Susanne Stemmer.
