Hot Shots: Office of Tangible Space
founders: Kelley Perumbeti and Michael Yarinsky
social: @tangible.space
project: Goodside Studios, New York
standout: Leveraging both cofounders’ experience running edgy exhibition spaces, the bicoastal design practice—with offices in Brooklyn, New York, and San Francisco—specializes in community-minded cultural spaces that foster a sense of belonging. Case in point: this Lower East Side pole-dancing facility opened by a former choreographer and art gallerist. Its basement studio is sensual in terra-cotta red, with walls adorned with racks for storing vertiginous heels and mirrors by Ready To Hang, their shapely forms nodding to hands on hips. In contrast, the street-level movement-practice area is light and airy, with a gridded walnut-and-oak floor and 16-foot poles—the city’s tallest. A run of velvety curtains buffers this zone from a lounge and a retail space, with cozy vignettes for dancers to chat and shop for books on art, design, feminism, and sex work. tangible.space
