About the Studio

DWR recently opened its first Flagship Studio in the 4,000 square foot ground floor fo the SoHo building which features large storefront windows, high ceilings and an open floor plan that serves as an ideal showcase for the furniture, lighting and other modern classics. Built in 1906 as a department store warehouse, the building features a subway map embedded in the sidewalk outside the Studio's front door. In 1986, the Belgian artist and architect Francoise Schein created "Subway Map Floating on a New York Sidewalk." Inside the Studio, the subway theme continues with a large graphic of Massimo Vignelli's iconic, though short-lived, New York City Subway map from 1972. The flagship also features fixtures and other wall graphics that haven't been used in any existing DWR Studio. Proprietor Carie Scott manages the Studio with her friendly and knowledgeable staff.
