What Inspired Your Journey?
As for me, I have a solid experience in communication, I have always been passionate about fashion and I have a keen eye for detail. Between us we create ephemeral tables for big names such as Chanel, L'hôtel de Crillon... and we also collaborate with many famous chefs." - Neda Zarrabi
An Evolution Of Inspiration & Experiences
From an antique dealer father, Elodie grew up in the flea market of St Ouen and had her first store at the age of 19. She is a self-taught person, she acquired her skills through her experience. Bathed in this universe since always she is passionate about the vintage since her childhood. In love with nature, she favors the second hand and gives a new life to forgotten objects.
Zarrabi obtained a Master 2 in press and public relations and became a press officer in fashion and luxury. She blossomed within many fashion houses and Parisian press offices, organizing multiple events which gave her the desire to organize their exclusive events.
Expanding The Business
Our goal is to develop Mensa Art abroad, to bring this French art of living internationally. The biggest challenge in our work is to constantly renew ourselves, to change styles, dishes, atmosphere, places... We have to adapt to a very demanding clientele, which has an eye for detail. Our work must therefore be very meticulous in order to offer an unforgettable customized experience.
Prestigious Clients
The most prestigious and memorable event was the one we organized at the Hotel de Crillon, we created the decor of the ambassadors' bar with antique pieces. It was a first for us because it was a question of recreating the atmosphere of a place and not only of setting a table.
