Lindsey Adelman 96 ID
Let There Be Light—and More Lindsey Adelman 96 ID has long led the pack in creating elegant, edgy lighting. Her Manhattan design studio includes a team that keeps it all in the RISD family: working with Ilya Brukhman 12 ID, Barrett Hanrahan 10 ID, Brendan Keim MFA 12 FD, Kevin Quale 10 ID, Brett Windham MFA 12 SC and Karl Zahn 03 ID, Adelman is best known for creating dramatic chandeliers and pendants made of brass and blown glass. Recently, she has expanded her extraordinary home goods to include vessels, tiles and wallpaper, along with Maine mussel shells plated in 18k gold, wall-hanging glass stalactites and turned walnut candlesticks—a curation of objects that is as impeccably crafted as it is desirable. lindseyadelman.com

Transforming Scrap Bill Hilgendorf 02 ID and Jason Horvath 02 ID, founders of the Brooklyn-based design studio Uhuru, make showstopping furniture for the home from stuff other people don’t want. Stockpiling sawmill scrap and discarded wood from sites like the Coney Island boardwalk and the deck of the USS North Carolina, they craft heirloom-quality seating, tables, lamps and more, with product names that read like poetry: Try to choose between a Love Someone table, a Street Wood bed and a Summer Snow bench, and you’ll quickly learn why Uhuru has been intoxicating buyers for years. uhurudesign.com
