Andrée Putman Studio Expands to New York City

The legacy of pioneering French designer Andrée Putman continues to flourish with the opening of the Andrée Putman Studio's first New York City gallery. Located at 344 Bowery, the new space is situated near Jean-Michel Basquiat's former studio, a location with personal significance as Olivia Putman introduced the artist to her mother. The gallery itself is envisioned as a Parisian-inspired home, filled with a curated selection of vintage items, re-editions, and collector pieces.

This expansion marks a new era of growth for the studio, which is helmed by Andrée Putman's daughter, Olivia Putman, and CEO Aurélie Laure. The New York City gallery joins the recently opened La Galerie Andrée Putman in Paris, which debuted alongside a new collection of furniture re-editions. The studio's presence in New York acknowledges Putman's long-standing and influential relationship with the city, marked by past projects like the Morgans Hotel in 1984 and designs for numerous U.S. boutiques.

Andrée Putman, who passed away over a decade ago, left an indelible mark on the design world. Her vision shaped iconic interiors, including Air France's Concorde and various spaces for Karl Lagerfeld. The studio continues to champion her distinctive aesthetic, which blends timeless elegance with modern sensibility, showcasing archival objects that reflect collaborations across design, fashion, and luxury industries.
