An enduring legacy at Disney
When a guest visits a Disney resort anywhere in the world and notices Disney character art in the fabrics, the furniture, the carpets, the marble, light fixtures and the wrought iron grille work, a smile is almost sure to follow.
So many of the details that surprise and delight children and adults alike and make their entertainment experience special are the works of Wing T. Chao, who was the chief architect and master planner for Disney.
For almost 37 years, Chao created hundreds of projects worth more than $8 billion. Chao’s touch can be seen everywhere you look: the resorts, the parks, the restaurants, the retail shops, the vacation clubs, the entertainment centers, the Disney Cruise Line, the sports centers, the office buildings and the new planned communities.

Eco-Friendly Art and Design Alliance
Lexus, known primarily as a luxury car company, began a journey two years ago to extend the boundaries of its brand. It created a stand-alone website, lexushybridliving.com, entering into partnerships with companies known for environmentally friendly luxury goods and services. It’s an ongoing project by Lexus to bring “ethical luxury” to the public, says Brian Bolain, the Lexus national engagement marketing manager. The website is part of a long-term strategy where “every element of our entire company, from production to logistics and sales, is actively looking at ways to improve our environmental efficiency,” explains David Nordstrom, Lexus’ vice president of marketing.

As the owner, designer and galvanizing force behind de Grisogono, one of the world’s most innovative couture jewelry houses, Gruosi has, in just a short time, revolutionized the way we look at and think of gems. “My aim is to do something new in each piece,” he says.
