(Anna Laura, Jessica Koob, Bethanie Zee)
The main entrance will be an early noir theme set in the 1900s – 1920s era. Black & white movies and a classic photo booth will be featured to capture the moment. Chandeliers and marquee spotlights will bless the room’s aesthetic, giving guests a lovely historic experience as they first arrive.
3- Lolie’s downstairs – Prehistoric Jungle
(Devant Whitefield)
Traveling downstairs will transport you to the farthest point of the past. The “Ugg’s Club” will be a hybrid between Flintstones and jurassic aesthetics. Vines, shrubs, fog and fallen asteroids will turn this room into a prehistoric paradise.

(Sara Tonin, Melissa Klima)
Crawl into the daycare! Today we’re learning to color inside the lines and watch cartoons! Make sure to wake up from nap time before midnight!
