Overview

Apparatus is a New York design studio that designs and fabricates sculptural lighting, furniture, and objects in its own factory, then sells through its galleries in New York, Los Angeles, and London. Its products fuse luxurious, artisanal materials such as marble, suede, horsehair, lacquer, porcelain, and hand-patinated brass into handcrafted pieces that are functional as well as artistic. The studio follows a Gesamtkunstwerk approach, creating holistic environments where every piece fits a single artistic vision and contributes to a larger installation. Unlike others who source or outsource production, Apparatus controls the making process in-house, emphasizing artisanal craftsmanship and custom, high-end design for both residential and commercial projects. The goal is to deliver total, immersive design experiences through carefully crafted objects and environments that align with a refined, modernist aesthetic.
