Dunn-Edwards Announces Grand Sponsorship of Modernism Week in October 2022
Dunn-Edwards supports Modernism Week for the seventh consecutive year as the exclusive paint sponsor.
Palm Springs, CA – October 10, 2022 – Dunn-Edwards announced its proud sponsorship of Modernism Week for Fall 2022, making the company the exclusive paint sponsor of the bi-annual event. The festival will take place on October 13-16, 2022.
Modernism Week is a festival that celebrates Mid-century modern design, architecture, art, fashion, and culture and is held in Palm Springs, California each February, as well as a mini-Modernism Week preview each October. Thousands of guests are attracted to this Southern California event, seeking its signature home tours, films, lectures, nightly parties, and more.
Dunn-Edwards is providing paint for two design projects that will be on display and available for tours in October’s Modernism Week: Limón by H3K Design and Hi-Sun by H3K Design.
Limón by H3K Design
Inspired by the Mid-century Modern movement of Central and South America, H3K Design remodeled and refreshed a 1962 steel-built, six-unit studio apartment building. The new incarnation is a ‘one group’ hotel concept – an ideal rental for family reunions, a group of friends, or corporate events, giving the newly-designed building an intriguing, private draw.
