AvroKO’s Lunar New Year Party with Chef Sam Yoo and Leiti Hsu
Lauded interior design firm AvroKO welcomed a sophisticated suite of guests to its high-concept hospitality and design gallery, HOST on Howard, for a Lunar New Year party. The spectacular evening, dressed in red, was helmed by cultural force Leiti Hsu and chef Sam Yoo (of Golden HOF and Golden Dinner), who also led the cuisine. Themed “The Pleasure of Connection,” the celebration was the latest in the studio’s Hosts at Host series, which welcomes hospitality, design, and art talent to step into the exquisitely designed space and bring memorable, meaningful events to life.
