About SENTIENT

SENTIENT Furniture

Art studio & design firm in Brooklyn, New York, known for creating collectible furniture pieces and artistic project

SENTIENT is a New York City based furniture design and fabrication company with more than 25,000 square feet of workshop facilities in Brooklyn. We have extensive experience manufacturing residential, commercial and hospitality furnishings including case goods and accent items. We have supplied furniture to the New York City area for decades and also foreign markets including Canada, United Kingdom and The Middle East.

SENTIENT Furniture is a furniture and objects design and fabrication firm with a philosophy that is found in the name. The word ‘sentient’ is defined as ‘the power of perception’, ‘by sensation and consciousness’. On viewing our work we hope your consciousness is provoked by our expressive creations. At different times our work is subtle and relaxing. At other times it might be audacious and bold. In our drive for originality our work may include materials that are of limited supply or are not generally easy to work with. We believe this increases the uniqueness. On occasion some of our work will of necessity be available only on a limited basis.

SENTIENT X | Design Collaborations & Art Projects

Art and design collaborations with great artists and top brands.

Here at SENTIENT we are curious in our explorations into the creative arenas of art, design and architecture. This curiosity continues to bring us deeper into the realization of what the creative mind can do: how art, design and architecture can inspire a better way of living, resolve and the joy that beauty brings. We believe that no hard line exists between art and design and continue to support this ideal through collaborations, vacillating creative possibility.

We are inspired by the materials we use, the culture of creativity and the handmade, focusing on the beauty of what design can bring.
