Mixed Metals — the Project Space in our New York gallery blends bronze and aluminum works by Chris Wolston ( @chriswolston), creating an endless display of texture for the eye to take in. Anchored by graphically composed wood-works from Colin King ( @colinking) and Sho Ota ( @shoo_ohta). The Transparencia rug, from our exclusive collaboration with Atelier Février ( @atelierfevrier) washes the room with a warmth of color, featuring a profoundly kinetic design that embodies movement within a static image. Stop by our West Village townhouse to experience one of our favorite rooms on view now. Captured by @joeinstakramm

The Yarumal series demonstrates Chris Wolston’s ( @chriswolston) capacity to push material and form toward excess without losing intimacy. Realized in aluminum, it situates everyday function within a richly decorative dialogue. Come see us in the West Village to discover all the work featured in Wolston’s latest body of work, Gilding the Lily. Captured by @joeinstakramm

Excited to share that Gilding the Lily, my new solo show, is now on view at @thefutureperfect New York ✨

In Gilding The Lily, Chris Wolston ( @chriswolston) reclaims the ornamental flourish of Art Nouveau as a vehicle for transformation and abstraction. Drawing from the movement’s core interpretive framework—the stylization of natural forms into decorative motifs—this new body of sculptural furniture reimagines ornament not as excess, but as aspiration. Stop by our New York gallery this week to discover all the work in Gilding the Lily, make and appointment through the link in our bio. Captured by @joeinstakramm

Chris Wolston ( @chriswolston) approaches design as both excavation and invention. In his hands, furniture, lighting, and sculpture become vehicles for material storytelling, where centuries-old craft techniques collide with contemporary wit. Each piece carries the mark of labor and imagination — a postmodern sensibility sharpened by humor, grounded in material fluency, and charged with an environmental consciousness that makes his work feel urgent as much as it is original. Stay tuned for the latest body of work by Chris Wolston, Gilding the Lily, opening this week in our New York gallery. Captured by @davidsierra_

A glimpse inside the studio of Jane Yang D’Haene ( @janeyangdhaene) — light-filled, elegant, and very much like Jane herself. We stopped by her studio to check out some new works that expand on her signature ceramic forms, into new and exciting territory. More to come this September!

Rafi Ajl ( @the_rafi_ajl) explores the tension between structure and spontaneity through a new series of sculptural furnishings that blur the line between function and poetics. Working in wood, metal, glass, and stainless mesh, Ajl constructs objects that honor the grid—an emblem of order—while embracing rupture and variation. Ajl’s practice is rooted in experimentation and material fluency, guided by a reverence for process and imperfection.

Designer @vikramgoyalstudio is probably the last person you’d have expected to become a champion of Indian material culture. Having recently made his debut Stateside, he sits down with his gallerist, the founder of @thefutureperfect, @davidalhadeff, to unpack his personal journey from learned economist to enlightened maker for the first-ever print issue of @thegrandtouristpodcast.
