Invisible Collection Announces Residency at Phillips Los Angeles
During Frieze week, the leading online design gallery will debut a unique, year-long exhibition within the private client room at the auction house’s LA space
(LOS ANGELES, February 2024) - Invisible Collection, the leading online design gallery, is pleased to announce their Los Angeles residency at Phillips. Following successful Hamptons and New York City pop-up activations with the auction house, the team is heading West to curate Phillips’ private client room throughout the entirety of 2024 with exceptional furniture and lighting from the platform. To mark the partnership, Invisible Collection will be showcasing a selection of pieces for Phillips and Art for Change’s Frieze exhibition, Fully Bloomed.
With a timely debut tied to the Frieze art fair, Invisible Collection is bringing their renowned French aesthetic to the city of angels via a selection of hand-picked pieces from their iconic roster that speaks to the city’s dynamic essence. For Fully Bloomed, on display from February 24th to March 14th, Invisible Collection has put together a curation of high-design furniture that will live in juxtaposition to the art show, including pieces from renowned French designers such as Pierre Bonnefille, Thierry Lemaire and Garcé & Dimofski.
The partnership will continue beyond Frieze week within Phillips’ private client room, which will feature a rotating curation of bespoke pieces crafted by the best French and European ateliers. Visitors can expect designs that reflect Invisible Collection’s signature style and resonate with the city’s overall vibe. From subtle nods to the LA glitz & glam through pieces such as pink and gold disco balls handmade by Studio MTX (one of Chanel’s Métiers d’art); to mix-use furniture that speaks to the Angeleno lifestyle. By appointment only.
As Invisible Collection continues to grow their influential presence internationally with physical spaces in New York, London and Paris, the blossoming brand has never felt more connected to their West Coast audience
of designers, architects, collectors and innovators. This long-term residency at Phillips represents a physical expansion in LA, a destination where clients will be able to immerse themselves in the Invisible Collection universe.
“We’ve always seen the US as a second home for us, a place with a large community of enthusiastic collectors and design connoisseurs who really appreciate and understand what Invisible Collection is about. I have a special fondness for LA - I love the city’s dynamic ethos, the way it merges Hollywood glamour and modernism, always open to change and experimentation. I can’t wait to start the conversation and see how the French aesthetic we champion will blend into this environment,” shares Invisible Collection Co-Founder, Isabelle Dubern-Mallevays.
