The GE Monogram Experience

The GE Monogram Experience – Louisville, Kentucky

 

Have you heard of the GE Monogram Experience? This past July 2014, I had the opportunity to be the guest of GE Monogram located in Louisville, Kentucky for a four-day intensive educational, hands-on and social extravaganza event. Approximately 15 Interior Designers and top appliance distributors from around the country were invited to learn about the BRAND of General Electric, GE Appliances and specifically Monogram.

But first….

A visit to Louisville, wouldn’t be complete without a visit to Churchill Downs!

GE Monogram treated us to a private tour of Churchill Downs Museum and Race Track before heading back to the classroom!

It was quite amazing being at Churchill Downs when it is empty in the grandstands. We were able to watch some horses training on the track up close and that was great fun.

The Churchill Downs Theater is shaped to simulate a race track and has a 360〫screen to view clips of past races and interviews with the jockeys and more. I highly recommend this if you are in the Louisville KY area.

Just like a Thoroughbred, the GE Monogram experience was all class!

why choose monogrram

Another quote from the GE Monogram site explains why Monogram is an excellent choice for the consumer when searching for a professional kitchen appliance.

In the links provided for the various GE Brand appliances, I encourage you to view them to learn more about what makes GE Monogram different from other Brands in the marketplace. “Craftsmanship is the Hallmark of the Monogram collection.”* From dishwashers, refrigeration to cooking on high-end appliances, the group was educated with what makes GE Monogram a superior product in many ways in a very competitive and often confusing field for consumers. “Savor the possibilities” ~ GE Monogram.

A Hotel stay at the 21C Museum Hotel in Louisville would not be complete without hanging with those pesky Penguins, a BRAND identifier who were kind enough to pose with us.

I know, it looks like we were just about having fun at the GE Experience but we learned quite a bit, got to show off our culinary acumen and even though my team did not win the Iron Chef cook-off, we had a great time! Thank you Monogram!

Thanks for stopping by, I hoped you clicked a link or two and discovered what sets the GE Brand apart and learned about some of the features of their quality products.

A Tasty Partnership- Brizo in the Kitchen!

You’ve heard of Brizo, right? The Über  technologically progressive and cutting edge of  faucet design company that partners with famed Fashion Designer Jason Wu? Well, Brizo is at it again and this time teaming up in the kitchen with Bon Appetit. I’m excited to share an exclusive video with you (soon to be released to public) featuring  Boston based Chef, Jamie Bissonnette, a former FoodNetwork ‘Chopped!’ contestant and winner! As the chef behind Boston-based restaurants Toro and Copp, Jamie approaches cooking in a similar fashion that the  Brizo industrial design team approaches faucet design. In this short video you will see  Brizo’s lead industrial designer Seth Fritz, (who I’ve had the pleasure of meeting in real life) discussing form and function with Chef Jamie.

Thanks for stopping by Chatti Patti Talks Design – stay tuned lots of fun to come!
