Hot House 2008

In the spirit of office intrigues — the hot television show Mad Men and the film Brazil — the Union Trust Building embraced its bureaucratic atmosphere in a whirlwind of lights, envelopes, shredded paper, and even a few rubber band balls, to welcome 2,400 guests to the Sprout Fund’s annual HotHouse. The night grossed $130,000. Photos by David Bachman.
