Come noon Wednesday morning, we shut down our computers and “unplugged” the studio. A few of us made the rounds armed with screwdrivers, disassembling various furnishings, while others spent the afternoon packing hundreds of art books. Amidst the chaos of the move, a small group kept the ball rolling from home—answering emails and designing in their jammies. Later that evening, the team retired to SoHo Park for burgers and an informal relocation celebration.

We loved Crosby Street and will miss the cool evenings on the roof, Hubert the superintendent’s evergreen smile, and the cobblestones of Crosby street. But we are very excited to have found a much bigger and brighter studio space here at 390 Broadway.
