MOVING MOUNTAINS is a Brooklyn based design studio founded by Syrette Lew. Committed to working with regional craftsmen and fabricators, the studio shifts freely between materials, styles and genres to produce distinctive furniture with a focus on upholstered seating. Careful consideration is equally given to aesthetics, functionality, and comfort, employing methods of fine craftsmanship to cultivate high quality in every piece. In addition to its own collections, the studio also collaborates with select clients to produce unique and one-off commissions for special projects. The studio’s work has been featured in numerous publications such as Architectural Digest, Dwell, Elle Decor, Metropolis, T: The New York Times Style Magazine, and Wallpaper*.
All pieces are made to order. Please contact the studio for pricing and lead times. If you require customization, or would like to commission an original piece, the studio is happy to discuss your needs. A selection of Moving Mountains furniture can be seen at the NYC showroom COLONY. We recommend calling ahead to find out what is currently on view.
Having been born and raised in Hawaii, the name Moving Mountains is a reference to the designer's home state and the archipelago created as the Pacific Plate moves northwestward over a volcanic hotspot.
