Greenville, Michigan (PRWEB) May 13, 2014

AGA Rangemaster Group, parent company of AGA MARVEL, announces that celebrated interior designer Kathryn M. Ireland has been named North American Brand Ambassador for the luxury appliance manufacturer. This appointment is the culmination of a long and productive history of collaboration between the two British powerhouses. Not only was the AGA range an iconic presence throughout Irelands childhood at homes in London and Scotland, but the ultimate oven and stovetop equipment currently occupies pride of place in her Los Angeles kitchen and French farmhouse. With each new client, Ireland continues to win converts to the AGA range and product line on this side of the pond.

Having grown up with AGA ranges and, in fact, having learnt how to cook on them, its an incredible honor for me to be awarded the role of Brand Ambassador, states Ireland. Long regarded as the absolute gold standard of stoves and appliances in England, I have no doubt that the AGA brand will conquer the kitchens of North America too!

As part of the partnership, Ireland will travel the continental United States and Canada appearing as a spokesperson for the brand. In addition, she will host events, from intimate dinners to large cocktail parties, at her new 8,000 square foot studio in Culver City where AGA appliances are already prominently featured. The studio, which provides workspace for Irelands design business as well as an on-site hand-printing facility for her textile line, boasts a full dining room that seats 24, a bar area, and a fully operational kitchen outfitted with a gorgeous suite of AGA and Marvel appliances. Keeping with the British theme, important antiques from esteemed British antiques dealer Christopher Hodsoll contribute authentic character and charm to the venue.

Says William McGrath, CEO of the AGA Rangemaster Group, Kathryns longstanding enthusiasm for AGA and her love of the new generation of electric products combined with her style guru status makes her ideal to get the message across that AGA is a relevant, practical product for todays American family.

AGA Marvel is a North American subsidiary of AGA Rangemaster, a leading international luxury consumer brands group which manufactures and distributes some of the best known and beloved kitchen appliances and interior furnishings in the world such as Fired Earth and Grange. The AGA Marvel name reflects the core disciplines of cooking and refrigeration products in North America, including AGA, Marvel, Heartland, and Marvel Scientific.

Tulsa, OK (PRWEB) May 13, 2014

The 2014 Tulsa Designer Showcase took over the stunning art deco 1937 Sherman Estate to bring the best designers in the Tulsa area under the same roof. Prudential Detrick Realtys Sally Jo Dierker volunteered at the event, mingling with top designers and innovators who all brought together ideas and trends centered around art deco design.

The Sherman Estate was built by Howard Sherman and still remains to be one of the most iconic depictions of the Art Deco Movement in Tulsa. The home stretches 7,000 square feet featuring four bedrooms, seven bathrooms, four fireplaces, seven living areas, three staircases, a three-car garage, guest quarters and a pool.

The stunning home served as inspiration for home owners, real estate agents, designers and suppliers.

One thing I found particularly interesting was the popularity of the concrete floors, Sally Jo says. Eyes were just drawn to the floor. Some people just paid for admission just to take a look at the amazing floor overlays.

They were designed by Paul DeAngelis of Architectural Concrete Technologies. From doing work at the Orlando, Florida Epcot Center World Attractions to backyards to kitchens, the concrete can embody anyones style. Professionally stamped concrete floors can look like anything from perfectly paved stone to high-gloss, modern flooring.

The Designer Showcase isnt just about home design either. Sponsors of the event support the Foundation for Tulsa Schools, a community-based organization that has invested more than $11 million in educational initiatives to improve the education system in the region. Volunteers, designers and attendees raised awareness and offered their support to the organization.

This is a fabulous venue for the Designer Showcase! Each year an architecturally significant home is selected for the showcase, and each year there is a different theme, says Sally Jo. This was the first designer showcase I helped with and I cant wait to experience it again next year!
