Our ClientsWe partner with private collectors, design professionals and cultural institutions to put together customized libraries, large and small. After listening to our clients' wants and needs, we apply creativity and deep connoisseurship to assemble a collection that ideally serves their purpose—whether that is for reference, study, research, or simply the joys of reading and looking. Scope and ScaleFrom international museums to boutique hotels, from blue-chip galleries to architecture and interior design firms, we consult on professional libraries of every size and scale. We are pleased to add to preexisting collections, or to start from scratch. Private Library CollectionsWe work with both emerging and seasoned collectors to assemble sophisticated and surprising selections according to their personal tastes—and to the highest curatorial standard. Whether it’s an in-depth examination of a particular movement in modern and contemporary art or a holistic overview of important backlist books, seminal monographs, and indie press titles, we build to suit. Looking Forward and BackWe can help locate out-of-print and rare art, photo, design and architecture selections as well as artists' books and limited editions through our trusted network of international dealers. Looking forward, our team will be happy to offer seasonal updates and recommend new publications to ensure the ongoing success of your library. ![]()
