Lambert & Fils, the Canadian design brand specializing in handmade lighting, launches its first showroom in the heart of Tribeca’s design district to celebrate the company’s 10th anniversary.
A long-standing dream is finally coming to fruition for Lambert & Fils with the opening of its first showroom on the ground floor of the historic Schepp Building, a 19th-century neo-Grec and Romanesque Revival red brick structure overlooking Tribeca in New York City. Located at the corner of Hudson and Duane streets on the West side of Manhattan, the majestic building embodies the resilient spirit of the city in many regards.
In the weeks leading to the opening of the showroom on Dec. 7, a video installation streaming in the shop windows is the founder Sam Lambert’s way of introducing New Yorkers to the brand’s world and philosophy. The video creations are a disarmingly simple plea for playful creativity, where material and light engage in a modest yet fulfilling conversation.
