Welcome to the fifth edition of the Official Guide to NYCxDESIGN.
And welcome to New York! NYCxDESIGN is one of the largest celebrations of creativity in North America, and this handy, pocket-size guide is the best way to navigate it. In these pages you’ll discover the essential places and events to visit in these two weeks (May 10–22), as well as landmarks and destinations you can return to again and again. And for the first time, this guide includes a handy foldout map to give you a bird’s-eye view of all that is happening in the city during NYCxDESIGN. The design fairs are larger than ever, so you can immerse yourself for hours at ICFF, WantedDesign, and Brooklyn Designs. There are exciting and inspiring events at Brooklyn Army Terminal, Industry City, Times Square, and Queens Library, end-of-year shows at New York’s world-class design schools, and showrooms to visit in the city’s design districts. A high point of the celebration is the NYCxDESIGN awards, held on May 20 at Pier 17. Find out more details on all these and hundreds of other happenings in our Featured Events section (p. 23). And for tips on where to recharge your creative batteries, turn to Design Inspiration (p. 18) for a selection of cutting-edge and historic museum and gallery exhibitions. The rest of the guide is organized by neighborhood and spans all five boroughs. Each section contains a detailed map and listings for showrooms, galleries, institutions, and DRINKSxDESIGN locations, as well as highlights on local designers and destinations. At the start of every section, we’ve included an overlooked Modernist architectural gem for you to seek out in each neighborhood. You can plan your itinerary at nycxdesign.com, and follow our coverage at metropolismag.com/nycxdesign. By the time you’re done exploring all that we’ve laid out—even if it takes you several visits, or all year—you’ll see how design is integral to New York’s past, present, and future. Then it’ll be time to join us again for next year’s NYCxDESIGN! —Avinash Rajagopal, editor in chief of Metropolis 14

Design Inspiration Spring Exhibitions Around Town Offsetted by Cooking Sections
Conceived of by London-based “spatial practitioners” Cooking Sections (Daniel Fernández Pascual and Alon Schwabe), Offsetted is an immersive exhibition at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation that repositions New York City’s greenery in the context of environmental services—the value in dollars that the trees provide to the city in the form of flood mitigation, pollution reduction, shade, and so on. Comprised of dismembered pieces of the urban forest, the exhibition highlights the ways that such quantification both protects the city’s greenery and accepts the continuous production of waste and pollutants. Jan Tschichold and the New Typography
Through July 7, Bard Graduate Center Gallery, bgc.bard.edu/gallery
A 1927 poster by Jan Tschichold, Die Frau ohne Namen (The Woman Without a Name), on loan from MoMA, is part of Jan Tschichold and the New Typography at the Bard Graduate Center Gallery. 18
This exhibition traces the development of Modernism that reshaped graphic design in the 1920s, taking as its starting point Weimar-era designer Jan Tschichold’s manual for graphic design Die Neue Typographie (1928). The exhibition’s core is a collection of objects and artworks on loan from the Museum of Modern Art, acquired by Tschichold while researching his book. Works by Modernist luminaries, including Kurt Schwitters and El Lissitzky, are highlights. But there are surprises to be found, including Tschichold’s early work in calligraphy and blackletter.

Changing and Unchanging Things: Noguchi and Hasegawa in Postwar Japan
this page: COurtesy © The Museum of Modern Art/Licensed by SCAL Art Resource, NY; opposite: courtesy kevin noble
Through July 14, Noguchi Museum, noguchi.org
The Noguchi Museum in Queens is dedicated to the Japanese-American sculptor and designer’s legacy. This show looks at the brief but consequential friendship between Isamu Noguchi (1904–1988) and Japanese painter Saburo Hasegawa (1906–1957), who is credited with introducing European abstraction to Japan. Together, the pair undertook a study of traditional Japanese art and design, as they grappled with the conflicts between traditional and modern, Japanese and Western. Containing over 90 works from both artists, this exhibition traces the roots of their shared artistic concerns.
Saburo Hasegawa’s Pure Suffering (1956), a work of ink on burlap, is on view at the Noguchi Museum.
Jean-Luc Moulène: More or Less Bone
Through July 29, SculptureCenter, sculpture-center.org
The Queens institution is prized for its constantly changing exhibitions of contemporary sculpture. Here, French sculptor Jean-Luc Moulène debuts a new work in his ongoing explorations of advanced technology and material culture. Working with software engineers, Moulène developed a process to create this composite form using the least amount of wasted material possible. The process, known as formal optimization, is commonly used in industrial manufacturing. Here, Moulène enlists it to create strikingly organic and skeletal work. metropolis

Nobody Promised You Tomorrow: Art 50 Years After Stonewall
Through December 8, Brooklyn Museum, brooklynmuseum.org
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising, sparked by a police raid on the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in Greenwich Village. The ensuing events catalyzed the queerrights movement and are re-explored at the Brooklyn Museum. The show examines the memory of the Stonewall Uprising in a generation of artists born after the event—all 22 participating LGBTQ+ artists are younger than 50—and considers history as a part of the urban fabric. 20
Protest Sign II (2017) by Elektra KB is one piece on view at Brooklyn Museum in an exhibition commemorating the Stonewall Uprising.

Co-curated by The New Yorker staff writer Hua Hsu, this immersive exhibition connects the history of the global Chinese diaspora through music. Seeking to represent a constellation of Chinese immigrant musical experiences, and drawing connections across time and space, Hsu presents styles as divergent as Cantonese opera, pop music from Taiwan and Hong Kong, karaoke, and the Beijing underground rock scene using a mix of art, recordings, and DJ-led listening sessions. The show encourages viewers to consider how identity, community, and belonging are constructed.

Demand material transparency and protect our planet.
Too many products in our industry contain materials that are harmful to our bodies and planet. Material transparency labels bring those to light -- and hold manufacturers accountable. At Humanscale, we’ve long believed in using healthy materials, and now include transparency labels on all of our products. In fact, we currently own 60% of Declare labels and 54% of Health Product Declarations that exist in the entire furniture industry. So the next time you select a product, ask for a label. You’ll push manufacturers to be more transparent and encourage our industry to use healthier materials.
Trea, shown here, one of our products that comes with a Declare and Health Product Declaration label

Midtown No neighborhood embodies Manhattan’s hustle and energy more than Midtown, home to some of the city’s most iconic skyscrapers and landmarks, from Times Square to Grand Central Terminal and the Empire State Building. The many showrooms, shops, and cultural attractions in this central area can be accessed by nearly every one of the city’s public transit lines.
The Socony-Mobil Building (1956), the world’s first stainless steel skyscraper, was designed by Harrison & Abramovitz and John B. Peterkin. The building’s exterior, clad in 7,000 embossed steel panels, is landmarked. 150 E. 42nd St. Photo by Mark Wickens Midtown

“The solution was an architecture of infrastructure.” —Elizabeth Diller on the design approach DS+R took with the Shed
Elizabeth Diller of New York–based firm Diller Scofido + Renfro is one of the most sought-after architects for cultural projects, leading designs for prestigious institutions like the Broad in Los Angeles and the ongoing expansion of New York City’s MoMA. Her ingenuity is on display at the Shed, the arts and culture venue that opened this spring at Hudson Yards. Responding to the unpredictable future of the arts, Diller took a novel approach. “All that we could be certain of was that there would always be a need for conditioned space of different heights and sizes, a need for structural loading capacity, and a need for electrical power,” she says. “The solution was an architecture of infrastructure.” It took the form of a plastic-sheathed exoskeleton on wheels, which enables the Shed to contract and expand as needed. Between this venue and the new MoMA, Diller’s bold structures will ensure that Midtown retains its status as a cultural hub for years to come. Diller Scofidio + Renfro 601 W. 26th St. btw. 11th & 12th Aves.

“When we need a change of mind, we drop in at a few galleries in the afternoon and come back to work with a refreshed mind.” —Masamichi Udagawa
Every day, millions of New Yorkers interact with and depend upon objects and systems without knowing or thinking about who designed them. Some, like MetroCard vending machines and LinkNYC kiosks, which have popped up to replace pay phones, were designed by Masamichi Udagawa and Sigi Moeslinger, known as Antenna Design. The studio has designed three new fleets of subway cars for New York City as well as workplace products for Bloomberg and Knoll. “Each design is a reflection of the people and the environment, so it is important to take an anthropological approach,” says Udagawa, who founded the studio with Moeslinger in 1997. He is inspired by Chelsea, where Antenna Design has been based since 2012. “Having the galleries around is definitely a plus,” he muses. “Sometimes when we need a change of mind, we drop in at a few galleries in the afternoon and come back to work with a refreshed mind.” Antenna Design 520 W. 27th St. btw. 10th & 11th Aves.

“Financial markets, the economics of real estate and home ownership, the insurance industry, housing— all of that affects how we design, who we design for, and how it’s funded. Those are the mechanisms that may control our fate, so we should be involved.” —Mark Gardner
Mark Gardner believes that architecture and equity are inextricably linked. “We have to be aware of the power we have as architects,” he states, saying design “can be used as a tool, like any good thing in our society, to oppress people. And so we have to be aware of the power that we have as architects. We have to try to make room at the table for everyone.” This thinking informs his work with Jaklitsch / Gardner Architects, where he has been a principal alongside Stephan Jaklitsch since 2010, as well as his teaching at Parsons and his advocacy work with Van Alen Institute. Whether designing a showroom, a home, or a center for beekeepers in rural Tanzania, the firm prioritizes a human-centered approach—one that has garnered nine American Institute of Architecture awards, including a National Honor Award for the Marc by Marc Jacobs showroom in New York.

Soho & Noho Donald Judd, whose home and studio on Spring Street now houses the Judd Foundation, is just one of many legendary artists who helped transform this historic, 19thcentury industrial district into an enclave of creative studios during the 1970s. Still largely characterized by cobblestone streets and cast-iron buildings, the area is now a shopping district, host to upscale showrooms, fashion boutiques, and restaurants.
I.M. Pei and James Ingo Freed designed University Plaza at New York University (1967) to fill a need for student housing as the school transitioned from a commuter college to a residential university. The five-acre complex includes three 30-story towers. Bleecker St. & West Broadway Photo by Mark Wickens soho & noho

“New York City is all about repurposing; it’s a perpetual urban experiment. Our practice at 2x4 is largely devoted to fomenting and investigating that transformation.” —Susan Sellers
Susan Sellers, a founding partner at the design firm 2x4 and a senior design critic at the Yale School of Art, works in a wide range of scales and media, from brand strategy to exhibition design. Since 1994, 2x4 has led the vanguard of critical, intellectually rigorous graphic and environmental design. During NYCxDESIGN, attendees have the chance to experience some of that work at a pop-up restaurant designed by 2x4 and David Rockwell in collaboration with Surface. Known as The Diner and riffing on archetypal American cultural exports, it first made a splash last year at Salone del Mobile in Milan. “In New York, diners reflect the inherent diversity of American culture,” Sellers says of the project in its new context. “The uniformity of the aluminum facade, neon signage, leatherette booths, and patterned Formica is reinterpreted through every person that flips the burgers and pours the coffee or takes a seat at the counter.” 2X4 180 Varick St. btw. King and Charlton Sts.

Lower Manhattan Manhattan’s southern tip is a study in contrasts. From the waterfront Seaport District to the hidden plazas and skyscrapers of Wall Street and the bustling enclaves of Chinatown and Little Italy, this area offers a taste of New York’s rich and varied density. Brookfield Place, opposite the 9/11 Memorial and World Trade Center, has brought new shopping and dining experiences, as well as arts and events, to Battery Park.
Designed by William N. Breger, the Tribeca Synagogue (1967) is easy to miss considering its distinct undulating, marble-clad facade. Inside, the form presents its curve in woodpaneled form to the congregation, helping to amplify sound. 49 White St. btw. Church St. & Broadway Photo by Mark Wickens Lower manhattan

Local Connections
“At Design Trust, design has multiple dimensions... including design literacy at all levels of civic engagement. Our mission has been to search for and support ideas that are generated by all types of people in all five boroughs.” —Susan Chin
“Distinctive design and public art pique people’s curiosity about their city and elevate their spirit and civic pride.” So believes Susan Chin, the executive director of the Design Trust for Public Space, an organization that works with city agencies and the community to advance the role of public spaces. The architect, advocate, and former assistant commissioner at the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs sees her current role as an opportunity, one that can connect New Yorkers with their city and empower them to stand up for the public spaces they want. “We help local leaders employ creative problem-solving, design, and negotiation skills in order to help them be better advocates for funding, project priorities, and content,” explains Chin. With an office in Lower Manhattan’s 19th-century street grid, the Design Trust is close to the nexus of city government, including City Hall. Design Trust for Public Space 40 Worth St. btw.

Brooklyn Brooklyn is an NYCxDESIGN mustvisit, host to both WantedDesign Brooklyn and Brooklyn Designs. But even without those fairs, there are more than enough reasons to explore the borough. Besides offering destinations like the Brooklyn Museum and Prospect Park, Brooklyn is home to creative hubs like DUMBO, Williamsburg, Industry City, Red Hook, Greenpoint, and the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Its many neighborhoods teem with energy and cultural diversity of all kinds.
Tucked away in Brooklyn Heights near Brooklyn Bridge Park is a former dormitory for the Jehovah’s Witnesses by Ulrich Franzen (1970), who is known for his Brutalist buildings. The brick building, praised by architecture critic Peter Blake when it opened, was sold to a private developer in 2017. 119 Columbia Heights btw.

“It’s not only about using materials that are unique or different, it’s really about using them in ways they’ve never been used before or combining materials that normally don’t appear next to one another.” —Arielle Assouline-Lichten
Arielle Assouline-Lichten, the architect and designer behind Slash Projects, is the recipient of this year’s American Design Honors, a WantedDesign awards program. Her Greenpoint, Brooklyn–based studio is within walking distance of several marble and metal fabricators, a proximity she says influences the unexpected combinations (recycled rubber gym flooring, brass, marble) employed by her product offshoot, Slash Objects. The studio has gained recognition for its line of tabletop objects such as coasters, mouse pads, and mirrors, as well as its Coexist Collection of furniture. The Coexist Daybed, which riffs on the chaise longue, debuts during WantedDesign Manhattan. “When people experience my work they come over and they want to touch it immediately. They want to pet it and think about how it was put together,” says Assouline-Lichten. “To me that’s the success of the piece.” Slash Objects 67 West St. at Noble St., Brooklyn

Queens, the site of two World’s Fairs and several museums—from MoMA PS1 to SculptureCenter and the Noguchi Museum—is rich in cultural (and with that, culinary) diversity. Between bites, enjoy the borough’s many waterfront vistas along the East River, ride the subway to Rockaway Beach, catch a New York Mets game, or see the impressive 1:1,200 scale model of New York City at the Queens Museum. 150
The New York Hall of Science (1964), designed by Wallace Harrison for the World’s Fair, is striking for its undulating concrete walls embedded with panels of hand-cut stained glass. 47-01 111th St., Corona, Queens Photo by Mark Wickens

“Moving out here is one of the best things we’ve done with our office.” —Jan Wilker
Jan Wilker is the German half of German-Icelandic graphic design duo karlssonwilker, serving as the firm’s creative director. Together with Hjalti Karlsson, Wilker has been producing eye-catching and playful graphic design campaigns for a diversity of clients— including MINI and the Museum of the Moving Image—since 2000. In 2016, the Manhattan building that housed their studio was sold for development, so they decamped to Ridgewood, Queens, finding a new home in a former knitting factory with a south-facing garden and storefront. “Moving out here is one of the best things we’ve done with our office,” says Wilker, who talks enthusiastically about the opportunities the new space presents. Wilker and Karlsson plan to open a small design shop in the building this spring, creating a platform to share work by the studio and its friends. karlssonwilker 682 Woodward Ave. btw.

MoMA was a central player in the Good Design movement, which spanned the 1930s to the 1950s. During that time, the museum commissioned a series of competitions and shows that called for affordable, quality designs for everyday life. This exhibition will run until MoMA’s temporary closing on June 15.

Among the many recognizable and now-iconic designs on view at the Museum of Modern Art’s current show, The Value of Good Design, is something less known: a linen textile, screen printed with black ovals in ascending and then descending scale, like the beads of a necklace. The graphic work is by Joel Robinson and was unearthed in the museum’s archives during research conducted for The Value of Good Design. Robinson went on to work in advertising, but not before he designed six textiles for the museum’s similarly titled 1951 exhibition, Good Design. He is the first black designer whose work was acquired for MoMA’s permanent collection.
