Emma Scully Gallery is proud to return to Design Miami for the second consecutive year with the Curio presentation, ‘Nightscape’. ‘Nightscape’ is inspired by old New York, transporting the visitor to a 1930s lounge, where they can sip Martinis and take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city outside. Inspired by the pioneering New York photographers of the 1930s, this booth brings new design perspectives to our moment, presenting works by Rooms Studio, Rafael Prieto, Simone Bodmer-Turner, EJR Barnes and Jenny Min. Pulling from various stylistic references and far-ranging craft techniques – from Wiener Werkstatte to Art Deco, the ceramic techniques of 18th Century Europe to Washi paper craftsmanship of Japan – each designer has thoroughly mined history, reinterpreting it to bring forth their own voices in the present day.

About Emma Scully Gallery

Expertise/ Contemporary Design

Located in a 19th Century townhouse on the Upper East Side, Emma Scully Gallery presents thought-provoking, contemporary works that aim to answer the question of how design can gracefully move forward in today’s material society facing superabundance, the ecological cost of overproduction and the shift from the physical to the digital world. A balance of established greats, undiscovered talents, and collaborative commissions, the gallery’s conceptual programming is academically curated by Emma Scully, a creative professional well-versed in art history, design and decorative arts.
