On Tuesday, September 8th, 2015, San Francisco’s legendary Palace Hotel played host to the first annual Designer Mix-Off competition, sponsored by California Home+Design<\/a> magazine in partnership with Caesarstone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking place in the hotel’s historic GC Lounge, recently renovated by Indidesign<\/a>, the event gave interior designers the chance to show off their inner mixologist by creating unique cocktails based on shades from Caesarstone’s new collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stakes were high and the competition fierce all night. Using spirits provided by Anchor Distilling<\/a>, designers came up with lively libations inspired by Caesarstone colors such as Dreamy Marfil<\/a>, Raw Concrete<\/a>, Fresh Concrete<\/a> and Alpine Mist<\/a>. Guests sipped on inventive beverages such as the Vicente Cocktail (Eche Martinez<\/a>), the Misty Fog Cutter (Steven Miller of Steven Miller Design<\/a>), the Vodka Quince Schrub (Jeff Scrhub of Green Couch Interiors<\/a>), and the classy Concrete Cognac (Will Wick of Wick Design<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marcus Osborne of local San Francisco radio station Alice 97.3 hosted the evening while the judging panel included Million Dollar Listing San Francisco’s<\/a> Justin Fichelson, Beatrice Girelli of Indidesign, Maggie Amir of Caesarstone, and Erin Eggleston from Liqour.com<\/a>. Guests at the event also had a say in choosing a winner by tasting the concoctions and voting for their favorites on Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There could, however, be only one winner. Tineke Triggs of Artistics Design for Living<\/a> took the grand prize for her The Alpine Mist, a Mezcal-based spin on a Moscow Mule that wowed judges with some special ingredients including actual “mist” provided by a chip of dry ice!

Caesarstone is proud to have been part of such a fantastic event. Here\u2019s a toast to all the amazing, creative individuals and companies who came together to make it happen. Cheers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
