NYCxDesign 2013 Spotlight: Roman and Williams for MatterMade

Robin Standefer and Stephen Alesch, the design duo behind the New York-based Roman and Williams, partnered with local furniture, lighting, and accessory manufacturer, MatterMade for a collection of pieces made of solid wood and classic brass details. Roman and Williams for MatterMade includes a family of lighting, a coffee and side table, and a chair and foot stool, all produced with superior craftsmanship, where the character of the thick wood makes a bold statement.
