1998 :: Disney
In 1998 the designers of Disney's Animal Kingdom in Orlando, Florida commissioned the Serets to replicate one of the intricately painted trucks that so flamboyantly carry cargo in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Working three months with local artists, the Serets decorated and painted a specially designed truck, with no engine that would serve as a food service "truck" in the middle of Animal Kingdom. The bus was such an impressive work of art, that Disney soon decided to make it an attraction itself.
In addition to the truck, the Serets worked with Disney's Imagineers and Designers to supply one-of-a-kind authentic pieces throughout the new Animal Kingdom theme park — carved marble pavilions and fountains, antique wood columns, windows, and doors.
In 2007, when Disney wanted to create a new sit-down restaurant in the Animal Kingdom park, they returned to Seret & Sons for ideas and inspiration. Designers at Seret & Sons worked with Disney's Architects and planners from the earliest stages to create the Himalayan-themed restaurant, called Yak & Yeti. Seret & Sons designed and custom-built much of the themed work seen throughout the restaurant — architectural millwork, doors, furniture, props, mosaic floor, and retail fixtures. The unique doors of Yak & Yeti are now open to the public and offer another magical experience in the park.
