Corston Architectural Detail Launches First USA Showroom at The New York Design Center
Corston Architectural Detail, the esteemed British brand known for its timeless, hand-finished architectural fittings, proudly announces the opening of its first North American showroom at the prestigious New York Design Center (suite 419). The new showrooms marks a significant step in the brand’s global expansion, bringing Corston’s premium, detail-driven hardware to the American design hub.
Corston brings its immersive showroom experience to US soil, offering customers a new way to engage with its signature collections. Founded by a team of designers and engineers with a shared vision for elegant, enduring design, Corston creates high-quality switches, sockets, hardware, and lighting that coordinate effortlessly from room to room.
Made to be timeless, every product elevates both contemporary and heritage spaces, from sleek new builds to historic townhouses. Designed and engineered in-house, Corston’s range of switches, sockets, lighting, and hardware is united by a commitment to honest materials and timeless design. With select finishes like Antique Brass, a natural patina develops over time, adding character and depth. The brand champions precision and proportion, offering an understated alternative to trend-driven hardware.
At its core, Corston is committed to creating an experience as thoughtful as its products. The New York showroom is designed to offer a fully sensory interaction, allowing customers to see, feel, and appreciate the meticulous craftsmanship and reassuring weight of each product. This physical touchpoint is vital, delivering an experience that digital platforms simply cannot replicate.
“Opening at 200 Lex is a proud milestone for us. We created Corston to bring thoughtful design, lasting quality, and reliable service to often-overlooked details like switches and sockets,” says David Gray, Product Director and Co-Founder of Corston. “Our Paris showroom proved how powerful it is to let people see and feel that for themselves, and now, we’re doing the same in New York. This space isn’t just about products; it’s about giving designers the tools and inspiration they need, all in one place and on their timeline.”
Located within the New York Design Center, Corston is now the only brand at 200 Lex offering designers the ability to specify high-end switches and sockets on-site. With rapid delivery capabilities across the country, the showroom also functions as a central hub for design inspiration, product education, and elevated service.
