Renowned interior designer Jonathan Adler lent his skills in the creation of the suite. Carefully placed chocolates compose a full-walled mosaic in the living room, chocolate artwork hangs on the walls, and two life-sized chocolate statues overlook the dining room, while other edible treats decorate the rest of the suite.
A stay for two at the 2009 Godiva Decadence Suite is the grand prize of famous chocolate maker’s annual Valentine’s Day sweepstakes. The winners will be the first and only to stay in the three-roomed suite. The suite was unveiled during a press event on Jan. 28. Among those attending the unveiling were designer Jonathan Adler and actress Brook Shields.
“It’s meant to give women something to dream of. It’s an over-the-top prize,” said Godiva Director of Public Relations Erica Lapidus.
Last year, Godiva offered a stay in the first Decadence Suite to the winner of their sweepstakes. According to Lapidus, this year, they chose to take it up another step. “To bring it up to the next level we partnered with Jonathan Adler. So you’ll see as you walk throughout this suite, it’s really an integration of Jonathan’s signature pieces and recreated in chocolate,” she said.
Each room, a chocolate work of art, is inspired by a different collection of Adler’s. The two life-sized statues of a man and a woman in the living room are chocolate recreations of his signature pottery “man” and “woman.” Beneath the glass of the dining table, a chocolate mosaic borrows a signature pattern from his Bargello Collection, while a pillow in the bedroom shares the same pattern.
