Nestled in the heart of Tribeca, our new home is a space designed for discovery, a crossroads of architecture, atmosphere, and conversation. Created in collaboration with architect Neil Logan, 85F reflects a minimalist precision that lets experience take the lead.
In the heart of Tribeca, 85F is a space for discovery. A meeting point of architecture, atmosphere, and conversation. Designed with Neil Logan, it carries a minimalist precision that lets experience lead. An ongoing study of proportion and perception, 85F shapes how we think about space and how we think about light.
As guests explore, the space reveals itself in quiet layers, light shifting across surfaces, materials showing their weight, warmth, and restraint. Corners invite pause. Details hold tension.
Nothing shouts. Everything speaks.
85F offers no script, just space. To slow down. To look closer.
A short walk from the Canal Street and Franklin Street stations, 85F spans multiple floors, each one a distinct environment for light. It’s RBW’s outpost in the city: a living room for designers, a workspace for ideas, and a gallery for what’s next. Whether you’re here for a conversation, a coffee, or a full-scale presentation, this is where RBW meets New York.
85F is an ongoing study of proportion, perception, and how space shapes experience. As we continue to host, listen, and learn, the ideas formed here will ripple outward into our practice, our products, and the way we think about light.
Join the circle to hear what’s happening at 85 Franklin, including exhibitions, gatherings, and moments that connect design and community.
