ABOUT

In service of artful spaces and considered identities, Islyn is a collective of thinkers, dreamers, and wildly curious makers who believe in elevating hospitality to an art form.

Founded in 2017, Islyn Studio is an award winning, woman owned and operated M/WBE design studio headquartered in New York City.

With meticulous consideration to detail and an allegiance to the senses, we create the worlds we want to escape to. A full-service design studio, we make hotels, bars, retail spaces, restaurants, objects and stories that explore contemporary culture and aesthetics through a lens of immersive sensory experience.

At Islyn Studio, every project is a passion project.

Our work is driven by imagination, collaboration, and a deep reverence for the stories behind things. We create sanctuaries for the senses, places you leave longing for. We believe in heart forward experiences that foster joy, presence, and connection, and in the power of place to contribute to a life well lived.

We know what love can look like and what beauty can feel like. We are always learning the joys and heights of human experience. At Islyn, we work with a throng of visionaries to bottle this lightning.
