The Next Cool Thing

The Next Cool Thing is coming to Atlanta January 14th-16th 2011. Simplefloors is hyped to be a part of this three-day event which showcases members of the creative community such as interior designers, event planners, architects, builders, lighting companies, performers, artisans and craftsmen who will be filling a 90,000 square feet building at 1235 Chattahoochee Avenue in Atlanta. An expected creative element is that the sets/environments are all based on a film or TV theme.

The visual tribute honors the work of Georgia Production Partnership (GPP) and the growing film industry in Georgia. With the help of GPP, Georgia has become one of the top five States in the country for movie and television production.

Barbara English of TO THE TRADE ONLY recently said of the event that “We realized the need to bring the creative communities together to introduce them to each other when Craig Miller, of the Georgia Production Partnership (GPP) and I discussed the perception that the state is lacking adequate resources to accommodate new business being generated here from Los Angeles and New York,” Barbara adds, “There is nothing the entertainment industry needs that can’t be found locally.”

The Georgia Production Partnership and TO THE TRADE ONLY partnered to create national awareness of Georgia’s rich, local talent and our mild weather, diverse shooting locations and international airport.

Simplefloors will be installing a variety of our floors in spaces throughout the event. We intend to make good use of the time and shoot our own production of an installation video providing a easy to understand step by step guide of the basic types of flooring installation.
