At Paramount Studios backlot, the Humane Society of the United States held an event to celebrate their progress and raise funds. Notable attendees included Diane Warren, Priscilla Presley, and Leona Lewis. Kesha was honored with the Voice for the Animals Award, Wallis Annenberg received the Lifetime Achievement Award, and Governor Gavin Newsom spoke about the Humane Society's involvement in legislative efforts through a video speech about the Humane Society's involvement in banning the sale of animal-tested cosmetic products and giant ocean nets used for mass fishing.

Every year, the HSUS Gala is held in the same venue, presenting the challenge of reinventing the space to give it a completely new and refreshed look. We opted for a bold, sophisticated color palette with custom-weathered panels, acrylic signage, and rich wood tones that added a touch of elegance, with rustic and whimsical florals to transform the space into an upscale yet rural environment for this year's event. Throughout the venue, we incorporated simple vector-style outlines of various animal shapes, creating unique photo opportunities that added an interactive and playful element to the decor.
