The Astro Lounge
On July 16, 1969
, the Apollo 11 spacecraft lifted off, carrying the first humans that would soon step foot on the surface of the moon. The Astro Lounge was designed to be an immersion into the sensuality of this moment when the world collectively held its breath before silently exhaling in another world. Deeply rich walls melt into surrounding textures of dusty velvet and quiet cashmere punctuated by photography and art which float in space as both evocative and historical artifacts, dripping with nostalgia. The studio plunges us into an intimately retro atmosphere built around curvilinear trajectories of form and light.
