NeoCon 2019 Keynote Presentations: The Familiar and Unusual: An Investigation of Balance and Experience in Design

Presenters: Robin Standefer and Stephen Alesch, Founders, Roman and Williams Buildings and Interiors, New York

Robin Standefer speaks on the Familiar and Unusual, followed by a Q and A along with Stephen Alesch.

Having first worked together for a decade designing sets for Hollywood films, Robin Standefer and Stephen Alesch founded Roman and Williams Buildings and Interiors in 2002.  The pair have forged an ability to create projects without boundaries or borders, employing a range of materials, objects and references—from the unexpected to the pedigreed to the mundane. They are designers of interiors, buildings, furniture and objects whose philosophy has spearheaded a movement in the industry against corporate modernism. The spaces they create reflect the narrative of the people who occupy them as well as the couple’s singular vision which gives their design a sense of power and cohesion.
