XXXI (‘Thirty-One’) is ❶ a mixed-use community space for designers (and others) to exhibit, teach, and discuss self-initiated work; ❷ a shared studio space; ❸ a residency for designers; and ❹ an online (and sometimes physical) store. It purposefully lives outside (or against) the constraints of the city it exists in and traditional commercial practice to ask what design can do when its goal is not money.

The Family Store is the best Mediterranean food you can get in New York City. That is all.

Love this shop. Has a coffee shop and a space to work in. There is plenty of light and everything is gorgeous!

I love playing on these red clay tennis courts. It feels like playing in Europe. I either drive my car and park right next to the courts or bike up River Side Park.

This is my favorite bar in the city: original cocktails, an unpretentious crowd and live jazz.
