The moody glamour that accompanies most of Apparatus’ furniture and lighting pieces may seem very much a reflection of its New York base, but in fact, the West Coast and California has long been a touchstone for its founders, Jeremy Anderson and Gabriel Hendifar, who moved from Los Angeles to New York seven years ago in order to establish the studio.
伴随着大部分设备家具和照明件的喜怒无常的魅力,似乎在很大程度上反映了它在纽约的基地,但事实上,西海岸和加州长期以来一直是创始人杰里米·安德森(Jeremy Anderson)和加布里埃尔·亨迪法尔(Gabriel Hendifar)的试金石。七年前,亨迪法尔从洛杉矶搬到纽约,以建立这个工作室。
This month, the studio celebrates a homecoming to California, with the opening of its new Los Angeles showroom in Hollywood. Well placed on McCadden Place with creative stalwarts like JF Chen, Blackman Cruz, Ralph Pucci and Regan Projects as neighbours, the 5,000 sq ft warehouse space, which was formerly a prominent television production studio, has been transformed into an evocative, sun-drenched environment that casts Apparatus’ collection in a distinctly West Coast light.
本月,该公司在好莱坞开设了新的洛杉矶陈列室,以庆祝加州的返乡之旅。这个占地5000平方英尺的仓库曾经是一家著名的电视制作工作室,现在已经变成了一个引人入胜、阳光明媚的环境,在西海岸的灯光下,这片面积5000平方英尺的仓库被改造成了一个让人回味的、阳光普照的环境,有着丰富的创意力量,比如陈俊华、布莱克曼·克鲁兹、拉尔夫·普奇和雷根。
Hendifar, a native Los Angeleno, says, ‘The West Coast has always informed the sensibility of the studio. Here, we had the chance to interpret the brand through a specifically Southern California lens. We found the perfect opportunity to bring Apparatus full circle, back to our roots.’
本地人洛杉矶人亨迪法尔说:“西海岸总是告诉录音室的情感。在这里,我们有机会通过一个特定的南加州镜头来解读这个品牌。我们找到了一个完美的机会,可以把仪器带回来,回到我们的根部。“

The showroom is a sensual mix of desaturated sunset tones and Giorgio de Chirico-inspired perspectives. Natural light streams through the space through a row of clerestory windows, located 15 ft above ground, while expressed in-hand trowel plaster walls bring an undercurrent tactility that’s also emphasised by stone and veneer architectural elements and three tons of gravel that have been discreetly placed all around.
陈列室是一种感官混合的去饱和日落音调和乔治·德·德拉奇的观点。自然光线穿过空间穿过一排清晰的窗户,位于地面15英尺处,同时用手工抹子抹墙带来了目前的触感,这也是由石头和饰面板建筑元素和三吨已谨慎放置的砾石来强调的。
Hendifar adds, ‘We wanted to distil the dreamy quality of De Chirico’s paintings. It feels so right for Los Angeles and the times we’re in.’
亨迪法尔补充道:“我们想要提炼出德·奇里科作品的梦幻般的品质。这对洛杉矶和我们所处的时代来说是非常合适的。
Presented against such a backdrop, Apparatus’ full collection of furniture, lighting and objects couldn’t be more appealing. To celebrate their joining of LA’s art and design community, the studio has also selected pieces from the JF Chen collection for display in its new home, alongside works by local artists Robert Moreland and Amir Nikravan in a true show of Californian hospitality. §
在这样的背景下,设备的全部家具,照明和物品的收集再好不过了。为了庆祝他们加入洛杉矶的艺术和设计社区,工作室还从陈嘉诚(JF Chen)的收藏中挑选了一些作品在新家展出,以及当地艺术家罗伯特·莫兰(Robert Moland)和阿米尔·尼克拉万(Amir Nikravan)的作品,以展示加州的热情好客。§
