David Kohn Architects have been featured in Wallpaper* with their new Stephen Friedman Gallery on the historic Cork Street in London’s Mayfair.
After 27 years at its former home on Old Burlington Street in Mayfair, Stephen Friedman Gallery called upon David Kohn to design the new flagship showroom – which allowed the gallery to expand its operation with increased hanging space, bespoke offices for staff, viewing rooms and art storage.
The reimagined showroom features street-facing, glazed exhibition space, alongside a range of meeting rooms, and a flexible library space designed to host activities from co-working to formal events.
The landscaped sculpture garden includes a pavilion and gate designed in collaboration with British artist David Shrigley OBE, and landscape design by Todd Longstaffe-Gowan. This ‘secret garden’ invites visitors to explore and discover new artworks, extending the experience beyond the gallery walls.
