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. Located at the prestigious New York Design Center (200 Lex), Corston brings its premium, detail-driven hardware to the American design hub. The launch follows Corston’s successful USA showings at High Point Market, ICFF and Neocon, and marks a significant step in the brand’s global expansion.
With an established showroom in Paris and a space in the Design Center, London, Corston brings its immersive showroom experience to the USA 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.
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.
