NYCxDESIGN is guided by core values of community, creativity, inclusivity, diversity, and sustainable design for the greater good. Beyond our annual Festival, our year-round programming provides a platform for NYC’s diverse design talent, from students and emerging designers to seasoned professionals. Each program fosters connection, education, and inspiration, empowering the next generation to use design as a powerful tool for positive impact and addressing the world’s most pressing needs.
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look inside Rosie Li Studio as we open our doors for NYCxDesign.
We warmly invite you to step inside our studio and explore our full lighting collection—including signature series Gingko and Laurel Blossom, and the Pilar ceramic series. Guests will have the chance to see and touch our full range of custom finishes, limited editions, and one-of-a-kind pieces from our 10 years of operation.
Designer Rosie Li and engineer Philip Watkins will be on hand throughout the day to share insight into our modular designs, fabrication techniques, and custom capabilities. Whether you’re a design enthusiast, client, or longtime collaborator, we invite you to connect with our team and experience the craft behind the lighting.
We’ll be opening our studio alongside fellow makers at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, including our neighbors at David Weeks Studio, Hypersonic and many others.
This event takes part alongside Boerum Hill Design Night, with evening happenings hosted by Assembly Line, East Fork, Porta, and The Primary Essentials—making it the perfect day to explore Brooklyn’s vibrant design scene.
Complimentary drinks and snacks will be served.
We look forward to welcoming you into the studio!
