Felicia Zwebner Design & FZ Collection have had a very exciting Spring and are already full swing with Summer events and projects. FZ Collection made its debut at the D&D with our Romeo bench featured in the new Romo Black window, and will soon be featured in the Christian Fischbacher showroom! In June, FZ Design & FZ Collection moved into a new office in Chelsea, Manhattan. We are very excited to be in New York City and are ready for new adventures. I look forward to sharing our good news and updates. I wish everyone an enjoyable and prosperous summer!
Best,
Felicia

Where Art Meets Design
Opening soon is the new Extell Development International Gem Tower! Located in the heart of the Diamond District, this new marquee office building on 47th street in NYC features a Felicia Zwebner Designed lobby. FZ Design selected a stunning sculpture and painting, and designed FZ Collection's new Basel bench specifically for this project.
Inspired by a sculpture that Felicia saw at Art Basel Miami, the Basel bench is comprised of strips of steel that ebb and flow around each other, mimicking the motion of the wall sculpture. Felicia also discovered Pedro Movellan's awe inspiring Levantar sculpture at Art Basel. Levantar uses air jets to move each piece at timed intervals creating the illusion of a fluttering ribbon. Ellen Berkenblit's abstract painting of flowers and the bright red of Movellan's Levantar introduce bursts of color into the lobby.
Felicia's vision for the lobby to serve as a reception area complete with art and furniture that is of equal caliber to the high-end jewelers who occupy the building, has come to fruition with these unique pieces.
