Design Studio and Home Goods Shop Debuts in Cobble Hill

Launched in mid-May, Manes Studio occupies a 650-square-foot garden-level space at the corner of Henry and DeGraw streets. The storefront is divided into three sections: a retail area featuring rare European stationery, ceramics, and textiles; a central showroom for the couple’s custom furniture; and a rear office for their ongoing architectural projects across Brooklyn and Manhattan.

The studio emphasizes a “warm modernist” aesthetic, offering neighborhood residents a local alternative to the Midtown Design and Decoration Building. Inventory ranges from $12 candles to $7,000 fine art pieces curated through IZLA Art Advisory. The couple, who recently relocated to the area from Williamsburg, aim for the shop to serve as both a design destination and a community fixture.
