ABOUT US

Actively involved in the research and production of limited edition works, the gallery's choices are guided by seeking an emotional, artistic and historical relevance and breaking boundaries between art and design. The gallery relies on the partnership of childhood friends, Julien Lombrail and Loïc le Gaillard.They first opened a space in London's Chelsea in 2006 in a former carpenter's workshop; they now operate three galleries globally in London, Paris, New York and LA. In 2015, the gallery opened The Workshop in Roissy, a unique 8,000 square metersspace dedicated to artistic research bringing together the elite of artisans. Today, Carpenters Workshop Gallery is recognized as a leading gallery for contemporary collectible design.
