Neri Oxman Presents a New Studio in Midtown Manhattan
Amy Duong — October 1, 2024 — Art & Design
Designer Neri Oxman introduces a new studio nestled in Midtown Manhattan which has been designed with the help of architecture firm Foster + Partners. It is defined by its production workshop space and wet lab. The duo worked together to create the two-story location located on the 9th and 10th floor taking over 3,345 square meters. It features white-painted walls and columns and plenty of glass dividers to still feel very open.
Founder of Foster + Partners, Norman Foster shares on the design process behind the project, noting "Every detail of this project has been developed in conjunction with Neri and her team, reflecting Oxman's holistic approach that spans scales and disciplines. Both levels of the new studio have their own distinctive characters and contain a range of highly adaptable workspaces and labs, which enhance creativity and will become an epicenter of world-leading research."
