"Since its early-2000s inception, Lumens has remained the premiere digital destination for design professionals, specifiers, and discerning aesthetes to discover lighting, furniture, and decor from more than 400 global brands. But with the opening of the Lumens Design Gallery in San Francisco's Jackson Square, the brand steps into a bold new era - one that is extraordinary, imaginative, visual, and exuberant. This is no conventional showroom."
"Viñas approached the gallery as a fluid medium rather than a display - spaces to be worked like clay, sculpted by product and finished by color. Rejecting the idea of a traditional showroom, she envisioned something closer to an art installation where everyday objects are elevated and seen from unexpected angles. Chairs are hung on hooks in reference to Shaker traditions and furniture workshops. Rugs are treated as textiles and mounted on walls like tapestries."
Lumens opened a 4,200-square-foot Design Gallery in San Francisco's Jackson Square that prioritizes experiential discovery over conventional display. The gallery comprises curated vignettes, collaborative workspaces, and installations designed to show how pieces converse, how color and form shift perception, and how design can provoke inspiration and conversation. The Designer in Residence program assigns the prominent street-facing reception space to a leading designer every six months. For the debut, New York-based designer Ghislaine Viñas reimagined the space as a fluid medium, elevating everyday objects through unexpected presentations such as hung chairs and wall-mounted rugs.
