This summer, interiors and design gallery VERSO is proud to collaborate with designer Little Wing Lee, principal and founder of Brooklyn-based Studio & Projects, on the occasion of their annual indoor-outdoor Bridge residency in Bridgehampton, NY.
Bridge includes work by 25 designers from nearly a dozen nations across Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas. Although distinct in both form and function, every piece within Bridge shares a common philosophical goal: to serve as catalyst for innovation by celebrating the often unseen links between aesthetics and unique techniques and traditions of making.
On display at Six Square House is a selection of pieces curated by Little Wing from African, Caribbean, and African-American designers including Nifemi Marcus-Bello, Garth Roberts, Peter Mabeo, and Asmite. Little Wing’s Bridge curation is a preview of a larger, forthcoming standalone BFiD exhibition at VERSO's Manhattan location in Tribeca, that will open in September, 2023.
In tandem with Little Wing’s selections, Studio & Projects presents the launch of the OKRA, ECHOIC I, and ECHOIC II a collection of rugs in collaboration with the manufacturer Odabashian – a fourth generation rug-maker founded in Mexico City in 1921 with a strong eye toward sustainable and ethical design and manufacturing.
VisitBridge and The Six Square House are open daily by appointment throughout the summer, accented by a series of small, invitation-only gatherings over the coming months. The Six Square House is accessible by foot from both the Bridgehampton LIRR Train Station and Main Street.
